ACTIONS
=======
- * "aboutToShow"
- Description: notifies the indicator that its menu is about to be shown.
- Workitems that are expensive on startup (such as loading EDS to query
- it for appointments, or loading GeoClue to guess our current location)
- may be deferred until this is called.
- So, calendarDay's state may not be fully populated until this is called.
- FIXME: aboutToShow should be spec'ed once for all indicators, not ad-hoc
-

+ * "activate-settings"

-
- * "calendarDay"
- Description: set which month/day should be given focus in the indicator's
- calendar and to use as a starting point when listing upcoming
- appointments in the indicator.
- Client code implementing the calendar widget should call this
- when the user clicks to a different day, month, or year.
- State: a dictionary containing these key value pairs:
- "calendarDay": string ("YYYY-MM-DD"). Used by the calendar menuitem
- to know which year/month should be visible and which
- day should have the cursor.

- calendar menuitem to mark appointment days.

+ "appointment-days": an array of day-of-month ints. Used by the
+ calendar menuitem to mark appointment days.
