Worked in sunbird 0.5 and 0.7. I just used the previous userChrome file and the special formatting for categories with underlines had disappeared after the upgrade to sunbird 0.8

In 0.8 the categories are now stored in encoded format to allow using non-ascii characters in categories names while using valid names for CSS rules. (see Bug 321010, Bug 355874, Bug 405356, Bug 412258).

According to my testing your category is stored as:

user_pref("calendar.categories.names", "Ferien_DSG");
user_pref("calendar.category.color.ferien-ux5f-dsg", "#FF0000");

Therefore you need to update your rules. The following might work:

  [item-category="ferien-ux5f-dsg"] .calendar-item { 
     border: solid white 2px !important; 
     background: blue !important; 
  } 
  [item-category="ferien-ux5f-dsg"] .calendar-item .calendar-event-selection { 
     border: none !important; 
  }

--> The change in 0.8 was done on purpose to fix e.g. the bugs mentioned above. I don't think this changes will be reverted therefore this bug is either Invalid or Wonfix.
