I was going to suggest that an add-in product installing a series of
high-quality calendar display views for Smart Folder would be useful.

Most likely, display views would be applicable to other folderish
containers, and it would allow a single point of collaboration on making
the best possible ZPT HTML for all the standard calendar representations:

day summary, day-by-hour,
week summary, week-by-day, week-by-day-by-hour,
month summary, month calendar, 3 month calendar,
year summary, year monthly calendar with date text,
year, multi-year compact calendar (like existing portlet calendar)

... and so on. I suspect if the mechanism and compatible products are in
place to use calendar display views, we'll have the community
collaborating to provide top-notch calendar display capabilities in no
time at all. Calendaring apps will likely follow the display candy.
