Are you talking about some UI in addition to the "Mine/no Mine" one we 
already have? I hope not. It's already complicated enough to set 
"Mine/not Mine" individually (per collection and, sometimes, per item) 
that we don't want to have to set something else through the UI for the 
free/busy. From a user standpoint, it's pretty easy to understand the 
relationship between things being "Mine" and showing up on once 
free/busy. Separating the 2 will introduce one new concept (at least) 
and new complexities.

I'm sure we can imagine some scenarios where such a feature could be 
useful though but, is that worth the extra complexity?

Seems like a discussion we should have on the design list...

 Cheers,
- Philippe
