I'm not agreed with you concerning the closure of this bug.
I'm not an RFC expert, I'm just an user and for an user your answer
isn't acceptable.
Try to import the jpilot export in Google Calendar and as me you'll
become unhappy when you'll need to remove one day for many entry...
If the RFC is uncleared you should let the user to choose the behavior
and not impose your point of view!

Regards.
