I want to store some statuses which I have previously encoded as a prefix to 
the alarm text in the description property, in order to make the description 
a plain text and to adhere better to the spirit of RFC2445. There are likely 
to be 4 or so statuses including repeat-at-login and cancel-if-late statuses 
which KAlarm needs to record in order to know when or if to output certain 
alarms. I intend storing all the statuses applicable to any particular alarm 
in a list held in a single custom property.
