Ok, as of r9008, this work is done. The calendar should hopefully be 
about 1% faster for basic drawing calculations, and is now far more 
flexible about columns and column placement. In addition, the "Week" 
column is now a fixed width rather than proportional to the other 
columns. Its ok to start filing bugs against calendar display again :)
