Follow-up to bug 1394524. Today, libical is ignoring invalid properties or parameters and replaces them by an X-LIC-ERROR custum property including a reason and eventually the original property/param/value. That way, libical is able to parse a big portion of crafted ics, mostly spread by services PUBLISHing event. Icaljs however, throws when detecting an errornous property or parameter, which prevents also the remaining valid part of the ics to be displayed e.g. in the invitation preview. Based on bug 1394524#c6, we don't want to port the existing libical behaviour to icaljs, so this bug is about to figure out the best way to achive something similar and implement it in icaljs (and maybe backport it to our version oif libical).
