if two events happen at the same time, their display overlaps. They should show
up in seperate columns. (dayview and weekview)

Reporter:
    This bug works for me in both Calendar 205011112 and Sunbird 0.2rc2.  Are
you still having this problem and on what build please?

This is about trunk. It doesn't work there.

Attachment: patch v1

This patch makes dayView and weekView call the old code to make the boxes not
overlap. The problem with that code is that it needs a list of all events, so
the code sin't async anymore. It waits for the last event to arrive. That
should be improved one day, but for now it at least make views work again.

(the patch conflicts with the one in bug 280234, let's get that one in first)

Seems there is a pretty big bug here: in the weekview events on different days
but the same time show up taking only half the space. The code thinks they
happen at the same time, while they are really on different days.

This patch splits the eventlist into days before setting the draw properties.
I'm not too happy about it, but it works. And the plan is to move to the new
view one day, so this patch should be ok for now.
