To summarise my understanding of this particular bug, the month view does not
display the Jewish plugin calendar decoration, but the other views do.  The
main problem seems to be that by having both the Jewish date and Jewish
holidays in the same decoration provided by the Jewish plugin, the decoration
is just too big for the month view.  Clearly these need to be separated.

There's actually a number of generic issues around alternative calendar systems
in KOrganizer that need to be addressed separately:

* Display a second calendar system in all views and chose what language it
displays in
* Recurrences calculated using alternative calendar systems
* Birthdays counted in alternative calendar systems
* Define holidays in KHolidays using alternative calendar systems (done in
4.5!)
* Select multiple holiday regions to be displayed

So, the holidays problem should be mostly solved with 4.5 by migrating the
Jewish holidays into KHolidays, which leaves the second calendar view problem
for 4.6, then we can deprecate the plugin :-)

Outlook is the only software I know that already supports this, see attached
pictures.  Taking it one step further, I see us having settings for Primary and
Secondary calendar systems.  The Primary sets the main UI system (usually the
locale one), the Secondary sets an optional system to display.  Each view then
implements the Secondary as best suited for that view, in the case of month
view just add the date in the day cell header or in a separate box on the
bottom of the day cell.
