Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

When making a new event for something the normal way is to look if there is already something on that date, so you look in your calendar on an e.g. per month view and click on that specific day, e.g.

And when you see there is free time, so you can make an event you click on new event but it doesn't pickup the date you already looked at and instead uses the current day and reverses the calender view to current month.

This way you often have to double configure the date you would like.

Describe the solution you'd like

Make the date in a new event default to the day you specifically before.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Make a button for each day to add an event there (at least at per day view).

Research direction

Start by tracing the new-event action from a selected day in the month calendar view. Reproduce the issue by selecting a different date, creating an event, and checking whether the selected date is preserved or the view resets to the current month. Done means a new event defaults to the previously selected day and the requested calendar context remains intact.
