Steps to reproduce:

Accepted an event from the Google Calendar backend.
The description of the event contained a "click here" link to open a videoconferencing meeting.

Actual results:

The "click here" link was stripped of its target URL and reduced to plain text. Therefore, the meeting joining URL was lost and joining the meeting was impossible from Thunderbird.

Expected results:

The HTML description should have been maintained and the link should have been clickable. Or, at least, the actual information shouldn't have been stripped and the link turned into a "click here (URL: https://www.blabla.com/stuff )"

Component: Dialogs → Provider: CalDAV

Well now on a different invite, the html link is dumped in the plain text, both retaining the information and making the link clickable. (Attaching a second screenshot). Very confusing.
