All of this is possible, beside having events and tasks in one calendar.

Well, this is definitely a bug, and the solution is not to look for a  
different solution, but to report this bug and steps to reproduce it  
on the bug tracker.

Correct.

Yes, it died many years ago, and wouldn't accomplish what you want anyway.

Yes, it works for me. If it doesn't for you, create a bug report.
