Eilert, you wrote something like this:

You can submit a wish for this at http://bugs.kde.org so we don't forget about 
it. It's no guarantee it will be implemented, though.

Yes, at least this possible with KDE 3.4, I don't know if this feature existed 
already in KDE 3.3.

I don't know since when, but in the recent version you can see holidays in the 
datepicker. Birthdays are not supported, you can only check them in the main 
view.

Yes. Since KDE 3.4.

No, it's not optional. Before we draw an item on the agenda, we decide if a 
header is required. If a box is too small, we simply omit it, else we paint 
it. Could you show us why it's in the way? (A screenshot on somewhere on the 
web is preferred).

Kind regards,
