[Kde-pim] Problem with icaltimezones being only a wrapper for libical

Hi!
A while ago, I tried implementing the xCalendar format (XML representation of 
a calendar to be able to apply XSL-Transformations to generate nice printouts 
and export to practically any format). While this works fine with kde 3.5, 
where we don't care about timezones, in 4.0 I don't have any access to the 
timezone data, as icaltimezones is just a wrapper around the libical objects 
and does not provide any interface to access the timezones. 

I suppose it would be cleaner to make KCal::TimeZone inherit from 
KCal::CustomProperties (or even IncidenceBase) and make it a native KCal 
class with the usual interface. That way we would also re-get a cleaner 
separation from libical (before the tz code was introduces, libical was only 
used inthe icalformat, but now a lot mor depends on libical).

Cheers,
Reinhold
