I have several recurring events (university seminar series, to be specific) in
my calendar.  Some of them are "must see", some are "fugeddaboutit", and most
are just on the list.  I need to be able to tag the good and the bad,
individually as session titles/speakers are announced, wihtout mucking-up
anything else in the recurrence set.


Reproducible: Always

(Is it really necessary to have the repeating event in your calendar, or can you
simply add each one as they are announced?)

This sounds like a duplicate of bug 194556.

Yes, this is a duplicate of 194556.

But 194556 is closed, and that's bum.

This feature is too doggone useful to be dismissed and it's not a heck of a lot
different from the ability  to block selected occurrences ("exceptions") out of
a list.

The "exception" capability, I would infer, is some sort of tag-object which
blocks the display of a single occurrence.  What would be so hard about making
the same tag-object into a single-occurrence note?
