Agree. As "groupware" developer who maintains a CalDAV/etc... server I can think of so many ways such a feature can go sideways [and likely does in GMail's case, but for whatever reason the G can get away with anything - even breaking long recognized standards]. > But isn't that what Tasks are for?

Agree - USE TASKS. I have this fight with users constantly: the abuse of the INBOX. E-mail is a messaging platform and one's INBOX is exactly an INBOX; for events, tasks, notes USE calendars, tasks, and notes (aka: journals).
