Description

Receiving invite.ics files from all over the place, I'd love to be able to configure a mailcap handler using ikhal of sorts. I'd imagine that ikhal would show a preview of the event (much easier than parsing ICS files in a pager), and then give me options, such as "Import", or "RSVP yes" and "RSVP no".

I took note that #534 speaks of a "preview mode", but I cannot quite figure out what is meant by that.

Research direction

Start with the ikhal entry point and read issue #534 to understand what its “preview mode” means. Define the scope for displaying an invite.ics preview and offering Import, RSVP yes, and RSVP no actions; done means the configured mailcap workflow supports those interactions.
