Wow, 3+ years for this.  Any progress?  Any clear roadmap, even?  

I live in the US.  I have clients in the UK and Japan.  I have friends in Germany.  My wife works at a Jewish school.  That's five lists of holidays I would like to be able to see simultaneously.  Outlook can do this, and has been able to for some time now.  KOrganizer Version 3.5.6 (enterprise 0.20070907.709405) still has this limitation.  Come on, guys, what's up?  

SUGGESTION: 
Mozilla has thoughtfully put together a page listing .ics calendar files that include various holidays, complete with localization info [http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/holidays.html].  These can be easily imported into Sunbird, either locally after downloading or even remotely right from the URLs shown on the Mozilla page, and lo and behold, multiple holidays are shown.  Since KOrganizer is iCalendar-compliant, this *should* be easy enough to do for KOrganizer as well.  

(Unfortunately, the Mozilla .ics files seem to include options that prevent KOrganizer from using them as-is.  I'm trying to find out what exactly I need to do to get them to work.)
