Regression: Calendar cannot have same start and end times for events
I have noticed that is not longer possible to create Calendar events where the start and end time and date are identical. The behaviour on 3.0.3.10 (Hossa) highlights the Event Start and End dates and times in red and greys out Save if the Event start and end times are identical on the same day.
I know this is a regression, I I have regular calendar events that were created before I upgraded to Hossa which continue to have identical start and end date-times. If I open the event for editing and make a change in (say) the description, I cannot save the edited event.
This occurs both on a Sony XA2 dual SIM, and an original Jolla One Phone
I request the original behaviour is restored. Not all events I wish to be reminded of have a duration, and it is inelegant to enter a false duration as a workaround.
I've asked @pvuorela who did the modification if it was done on purpose or as a side effect of rewriting the code handling the change in end time when the start time is modified. Besides this little regression, the new logic is much better in my opinion.

So it looks like that the current way is better from the perspective of the hole calendar ecosystem.
