Getting management to change their working practices?  I can already hear the
cries of 'but we've always done it this way'. :)

Seriously,  I've heard variations on this suggestion from a few different
support staff.  In situations where there is a department secretary who
more-or-less controls the diaries of a number of staff, the ability to simply
plonk events into several calendars as a fait accompli removes the extra step
of waiting for the person in question to accept the meeting invitation.
Using the 'create as new' functionality solve the problem, but is time
consuming if it has to be done several times.

I'll have a go at putting something together myself.  If it's not accepted as
a feature, I can always maintain a local copy.
