Description

I want to use khal just for printing iCal files in neomutt. I don't need any of the calendar management functionality. Can khal figure out datetime formats from my locale and use that as a sane default?

Research direction

Start by tracing khal's configuration-loading entry point and the command path used to print iCal files for neomutt. Define how a no-config invocation should select locale-based datetime formats and what minimal calendar behavior must remain available, then verify the result with the relevant existing command or integration tests.
