Describe the bug
When I add an item that is calendar driven, it is integrating it as a 'task' and not as an 'event'. Therefore other software that link to it (in this case Thunderbird) are not displaying it as a calendar item. How to modify this behavior so it is treated like a native calendar event.
Is this a bug / built in hardwire or is this changeable somewhere? Cannot find it.

Research direction
Start by tracing Deck's calendar-driven item integration and the DAV export path, then reproduce the result in Thunderbird using the issue's Ubuntu, Nextcloud 20, and MySQL setup. Determine where the item type is assigned and verify completion by confirming that the exported item is recognized as a calendar event rather than a task.
