Description

Steps to reproduce
  1. Open Nextcloud calendar
  2. Click the + next to Meeting Proposals in the left sidebar
  3. Fill in title, description, location duration and participants
  4. Click on any field eg. duration after setting the location
  5. Location resets to empty "No Location"
  6. Open an existing proposal to view responses. Second crash occurs.
Expected behavior

Location field retains its value when interacting with other fields
Proposal view renders without crashing

Actual behavior

Location is silently cleared when clicking other fields
ProposalEditor crashes with two Vue render errorrs
`[ERROR] calendar: [Vue error]: Error in render:
TypeError: can't access property "scheduleDefaultCalendarUrl",
this.currentUserPrincipal is undefined
ProposalEditor.vue:587

[ERROR] calendar: [Vue error]: Error in render:
TypeError: can't access property "title", e.selectedProposal is null
ProposalEditor.vue:967`

Additional info

Root cause:
The log shows Calendar API not initialized yet at ProposalEditor.vue:587, followed by calendar home scanned appearing later. This confirms the component renders before the async CalDAV store resolves the user principal.

Research direction

Start in ProposalEditor.vue, especially the render locations reported at lines 587 and 967, and reproduce the issue by creating a meeting proposal and opening an existing one. Trace when the CalDAV store provides currentUserPrincipal and selectedProposal relative to rendering. Done means the location remains populated while editing and the proposal view renders without either reported error.
