Steps to reproduce:

In TB 119.0b6 (64-bit) in my caldav calendar set with offline support disabled (unticked), the network connection drops without me noticing...
I create a new calendar event which took time to edit.
I press Save and Close.

Actual results:

The edit event Windows close and the following error message pops up:

"An error occurred when writing to the calendar <calendarName>!
Please see below for more information..."

==> All my event edit data is lost

Expected results:

A notification would tell me that writing to the calendar failed due to unavailability of the network but the edit event window with all my filled in information would not be closed allowing me to fix the network connection issue and re-try to save and close or at least save my data.

==> The calendar event edit window shall only close if the saving the succeed

Yes it is happening in TB 115.8.1 (64-bit) and I believe it has always been happening in TB.
This bug is especially annoying when you disable Offline Support as all data entered is lost.
