As you said, this is not easy! ;-)

I've tested with P990, and syncing an all day event from the phone to
Horde works.
Creating an all day event in Horde and syncing to the phone results in an
event that spans from 00:00 to 23:59, and is _not_ marked as an all day
event on the phone.

Examples created on the phone (from_phone.vcs) and in Horde
(from_horde.vcs) are attached.
There are two differences: Horde uses start at <date>T00000 and end at
<date>T235959, while the phone has <date>T000000 - <date+1>T000000. The
other one is that the record from the phone has the proprietary property
"X-EPOCAGENDAENTRYTYPE:EVENT".

I've tried (by beaming) combinations of these two changes to the phone,
and it turns out that the differences in dates doesn't matter, and
X-EPOCAGENDAENTRYTYPE:EVENT has to be present in order for the phone to
recognise the event as an all day event. The attached file
phone_test.vcs is displayed as an all day event when it is sent to the phone.
