Description

Currently khal edit [--show-past] event_search_string will loop through all events that match the search string. The option to search for a specific date would be very nice, since then there would not be so many events to cycle through.

Research direction

Start at the khal edit command and trace how event_search_string is parsed and matching events are selected. Check the existing edit flow and its handling of --show-past, then define the specific-date input and verify that only matching events are offered for editing.
