Yep, confusing.

I hacked this into the (uncommitted) code for now, can be connected to a checkbox
"[ ] Always print entire weeks" in the future, unless someone has a better idea for a GUI.

Ah -- thanks a lot for that hint. Problem solved by adding a similar checkbox in the "week" printing.

I also added a "include description" checkbox in the week printing, we needed the
company meeting schedule to include the longer description entered into each event.

The resulting patch is attached -- but obviously it has to wait until after the 4.2 freeze;
I hope it still applies then :-)

If I forget to come back to this issue (I know I will), feel free to commit this code
or to ping me about it.
