It seems like people get used to that when they work in environments
that requires them to submit time cards. Personally, I just find it
annoying to look at the agenda view and see a meeting I attended

I tried to change it in a way that would not affect the existing
functionality. I also looked at all the calls to current-time (in the
4.01 version I started with) and only modified the ones that were
