Not a direct answer to your questions - but just in case it might help. 
I've tried Lightning with remote calendars (mostly Webdav and ics) - and 
I found the performance once the calendar goes beyond roughly 1000 
entries is pretty awful. It doesn't look like the Lightning interface is 
multi-threaded - so every time it syncs with the remote calendar it just 
freezes the entire application. I've been really dissapointed for a 
while now about how little effort Mozilla Foundation is putting into the 
Lightning/Sunbird development - when they have plenty of resources to 
chase pipe dreams, such as turning Firefox into a gaming platform and 
other similar non-sense.
