You are right that `org-icalendar-include-todo' is only affecting VTODO,
but not VEVENT.
My concern is mostly that "(no-export . ("SKIP"))" is somewhat similar
to `org-icalendar-include-todo' set to a list of todo keywords. So, it
may be confused with VTODO-specific option.
Another concern is that we already have `org-export-with-tasks' where
you can specify which todo keywords should be exported and which
headings should be exported, according to their todo keyword. So,
"no-export" appears to unnecessary.
What is unique to icalendar exporter is the STATUS property. Having a
setting to set it according to todo keyword would indeed make sense.
However, after I looked at the RFC in more details now, I can see that
the values of STATUS property depend on the entry type:
statvalue-event = "TENTATIVE" ;Indicates event is tentative.
/ "CONFIRMED" ;Indicates event is definite.
/ "CANCELLED" ;Indicates event was cancelled.
;Status values for a "VEVENT"
statvalue-todo = "NEEDS-ACTION" ;Indicates to-do needs action.
/ "COMPLETED" ;Indicates to-do completed.
/ "IN-PROCESS" ;Indicates to-do in process of.
/ "CANCELLED" ;Indicates to-do was cancelled.
;Status values for "VTODO".
statvalue-jour = "DRAFT" ;Indicates journal is draft.
/ "FINAL" ;Indicates journal is final.
/ "CANCELLED" ;Indicates journal is removed.
;Status values for "VJOURNAL".
Maybe we can introduce separate variables mapping todo keyword to status
depending on the entry type (VTODO vs. VEVENT; we do not export VJOURNAL)?
