Conversion is only accessible through context menu of 'calendar-task-tree' or DND in Lightning.

Expected Results:  
Should be also accessible through Event's context menu and menu 'Edit'.

Attachment: Urgent needed locales to fix this bug.

Is there any chance to get this patch checked-in before the release of 0.8?
Otherwise I don't see any chance to get this bug solved until then and would delay the work on this bug...

Sven, please provide the full patch and ask for review. The reviewer will then decide, whether it's alright to break the string freeze (by adding the late-l10n keyword and CCing [e-mail]).

If we break the string freeze it will be obligatory for you as the patch submitter to inform the l10n community about this by posting to the mozilla.dev.l10n newsgroup.

Well, this one seems more complicated than expected...
I will drop development on this for some time for the following reasons:

- One point to add the commands would be the agenda-context-menu:
But I encountered strange implementations on the Today-Pane as I already posted in bug 389150.
(the menu itself is in 'calendar/today-pane.xul' and points to commands in 'lightning/messenger-overlay-sidebar.xul' which execute functions in 'lightning/agenda-listbox.js')
Since the 'agenda-listbox' belongs to 'today-pane' they should be located at the same positions: base or lightning)

- Another point would be the context menu of Unifinder: but these are totally different between Sunbird and Lightning.

I think it's neither up to this bug nor to bug 389150 to correct this - but development would be easier, if the above things are corrected. Maybe I will file appropriate bugs later...
