[Bug 42115] Re: Clicking on date in calendar applet open previous date in Evolution

[joehill]

Yes, I understand your logic.  I just think it's wrong.  If Evolution
can't handle a plain date as a sane user (not a logician) would expect
it to, then it shouldn't allow a plain date argument in the first place.
To give Thursday when one asks for Friday is a bug according to any
human interface standards, regardless of the time zone or semantics.

I agree that it should be changed in gnome-panel if Evolution won't fix
this bug, but I'm not conceding that it's not a bug.  Evolution should
follow a logic that says "if argument does not include a time, then
return the date only, else if time is specified, return it in user's
time zone (not GMT, etc.)."  Friday is not Thursday from the user's
point of view, and this is a fact that Evolution (not end users) should
handle.
