Ooops... Sorry... I don't know how I could have misunderstood such a simple
straight forward request. Please forgive me.

>> Should we add an option to the plugin to show only the holidays,
>> and not the entire Jewish calendar? 

I think that is correct. Approach. And if possible, if the holiday is placed in
the calendar like any other event, then any of the other relevant info that is
already recorded with the holiday be placed inside the event (maybe in the
description section). Maybe even a link to a wiki like wikepedia would be a
really cool feature (I realize that that would be a lot of work - Just a
thought though).

One other thing.... If possible... Since the a day in the Jewish Calendar
begins after sunset and ends at sunrise, it would also be very cool if a Jewish
Holiday event would span at least the half day of each day to give a visual
indication of that. Maybe its just me, but when work gets really really hectic
my "dyslexia" shows up and I get confused as to when the event actually occurs.
I think this as a feature would be really really nice touch.

>> overlaying an entire second set of dates from another calendar system
>> is a totally different problem we need to consider.

I agree that this is a problem, but not one that you can have any control over.
How would you know that an imported event is a holiday or not unless its marked
someway as a holiday. Or you do a brute force match.

If you have someway to detecting whether an imported event is a holiday then it
would be good to ask the user if the event should be imported. And if so, then
import the event as faithfully as you possibly can and leave the esthetics to
the user.
