When I copy an event with attendees from my colleagues calendar every  
attendee receives a notification because of a new / modified event.  
This is a bit annoying (not as much for me as for the other  
attendees). It is not possible to "uncheck" that the attendees are to  
be notified.

One of the original  attendees sent a mail to me (from Outlook I  
guess) which said that I wanted to notify him about the event. At  
http://picpaste.com/event-4gL9jTtr.png I uploaded a screenshot from  
the (Outlook) mail from the attendee. Unfortunately it's in German.  
(Literally?) translated the bold line says: "Jens Grüntjes wants to  
call your attention to 'Sitzung am ?'" I don't know how Outlook makes  
a difference between new events and modified events, but it might be a  
new event.

Here an excerpt from the kronolith mailing list (2015-11-16 and 2015-11-17):

mrubinsk:  It sounds like what you are trying to do is accept/add this  
event on your own calendar as if you were one of the original  
attendees, but without actually being one.
jens: Yes, that's true. But this also holds if I am an original  
attendee and make a copy of an event and put that into a shared  
calendar.

mrubinsk: That being said, I could see adding an extra step when the  
event being copied still contains attendees - to verify that you  
really want to copy the event with the attendees or not.
jens: Yes, that would be really helpful. Maybe something like the  
question that shows up when I modify an event with attendees.  
Kronolith asks if I want to send the modifications to all attendees  
after submitting the modifications.
