Calendar needs to be invocable with a URL
Status in The Date and Time Indicator:

Status in Calendar application for Ubuntu devices:

Status in URL Dispatcher:

Status in “url-dispatcher” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
For the design in the datetime indicator we need to be able to click
on events in the calendar, and have them show up in the calendar
application. For all other things similar to this we're using an URL
to ensure proper execution and containment, that also makes sense
here. I was unable to find any official prior art on a URL format to
use for this, so I'm reverting to some adhoc prior art that Evolution
uses.
Evolution supports a URL calendar:/// which can then take two
parameters of starttime and endtime, which as a group show how much
time to show and where to start end the view. For instance, a week
long retreat might make more sense to show in week view, but a 15
minute meeting will be shown in day view. I think that the caller
doesn't need to make that choice, but instead provide the time they're
interested in.
In evolution, the parameters starttime and endtime are both ISO 8601
date/time strings as parsed by libecal's time_from_isodate() function,
are separately optional: one or both or neither can be provided.
If no parameters are provided to evolution, it pops up a planner
showing today.
