[kronolith] Selected calendars cached when changing month/week/etc.

[Chris St. Pierre]

http://bugs.horde.org/ticket/7879

I dug through the code, but I'm afraid I don't have the JavaScript
skills to generate a patch (or even understand much of what's going on
in the code).  I still run Web 1.0. :)

Thanks!
