Yes, there is no combination of creator/user permission. If I  
understand you correctly, you want to give general access to a few  
users only, but even then only allow them to edit their own events.  
That's not possible, unless by obscurity, i.e. you can simply hide the  
calendar to everyone but these users. Other users could still use them  
if they know the calendar ids.

Correct. How should that work anyway? The URL has to point to a valid  
and working script.
