Description

Hi, excellent work with khal 👍

I was wondering if it is possible to define the timezone on the new event "form" from within khal. I believe you can specify the timezone when doing khal new but it could be a great addition to be able to select the timezone from the interactive khal.

Thanks and sorry if this request has already been addressed, I searched but was not able to find it.

Research direction

Start by reading the interactive khal event-creation flow and comparing it with the existing timezone handling in khal new. Done means the interactive form lets users select a timezone when creating an event, with behavior consistent with the command-line flow.
