It could be that Sunbird is not using the new event dialog yet.  I saw this bug
in Lightning.

Shouldn't there be some kind of feedback telling the user why the accept button
is disabled?

I agree that there should be some sort of feedback, but I think this bug is
dangerous enough (on the inadvertant data-loss front) that I'd like to check the
patch in as-is now, and then leave this bug upon so that we can cons up another
patch for that.

Basic dataloss patch checked in.

Fixed by the dialog unification (bug 296893)
