It would be nice to have the ability to view multiple calendars in an uncombined or NOT composite fashion. *COUGH* outlook *COUGH* does this by default with 'other calendars' and zimbra does this with what they call 'scheduling' view. It would be a way to schedule _for_ others rather than scheduling _with_ others. In my opinion this would make the software much more usable in a small business environment. I have provided a screenshot of an example, however I do not know how long I can host this. Thanks.

This was also discussed in IRC with mvl.  It's completely clear where this might lie on our feature release set right now, but we would definitely welcome an extension for this functionality.

Drag and Drop functionality would be a plus.
