Description
I didn't see this in the tracker so I thought I'd put it up.
We can currently delete an event's entire history, or a single event from a recurring event.
It would be neat if we could preserve existing history of events, but delete all future events.
I think this could be implemented by adding UNTIL to the RRULE.

Research direction
Start by tracing the existing recurring-event deletion behavior and the code that builds or updates the RRULE. Confirm how single-instance and full-history deletion currently work, then verify that adding an UNTIL boundary preserves past instances while removing future ones.
