[Design] Lozenge shape

[Mitchell Kapor]

I'm now dogfooding 0.6.1.  I've put away iCal, at least for a week.   
So far, so good, as they say.  My assistant, Esther Sun, keeps my  
calendar, so my primary use case is frequently consulting it to see  
what I have to do next, what the current day is like , or how busy is  
a specified interval in the future.  I have a fairly full calendar  
and it is not unusual to have 4 or 5 consecutive appointments of 30  
or 60 minutes duration each.

The visual separation between multiple consecutive events is not up  
to par.  The problem is that it's hard to tell where one event ends  
and the next begins.  The shape of each event is rectangular on the  
left side and nearly so on the right, with only a very small curved  
cut-out at the top and bottom edge.  I think it would really help if  
the event "lozenge" was actually more lozenge-shaped so that a series  
of consecutive events would read more as a set of oval lozenges  
stacked on top of one another rather than a stack of slightly  
defective legos.
