Build Identifier: Subird 0.8

Example:

in the month view 07.05.2008 is also visible in the view "June 2008". If press the Today-button, Sunbird 0.9 jumps to "May 2008".

Outlook keeps the current view if "Today" is already visible, as expected.

Reproducible: Always

I mean Subird 0.8, sorry.

What is wrong? Today is 07-May-2008 and therefore the view changes to 07-May-2008 when pressing the Go To Today button.

> What is wrong?

07-May-2008 is also displayed if "June 2008" is selected in the month view.

So there is no need to switch the view to "May 2008". Just setting the focus to 07-May-2008 within the June-view is enough. This is what Outlook does and what I expect as user.

Btw, the button to switch to any date already works as expected. If I enter today's date there, the view does not switch if the date already is displayed.

The Today button should behave identical.
