A remote event (i.e. an event which I have been invited to) is generally read-only in my calendar. This is basically fine, but it would be nice it I could add a personal note/info/comment (probably even a file, but that's not so important) to this event. This personal note (a simple text field) should not be shared with the inviting person or other invitees, it should be just for my personal use.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Accept an event invitation
2. Open the event dialogue (e.g. double-click on the event)
Actual Results:  
There is no possibility to enter a personal note/comment. Nearly all fields are read-only, the only exception being the drop-down lists "Reply" and "Reminder".

Expected Results:  
Having a text field to enter e personal note/comment to the event would be great.

There is also a proposal for private comments for caldav events. This of course doesn't help for other calendar types.
