Description
Hello,
Sometimes you want to have two alarms: one before the event start and one before the event stops. The icalendar allow to do this with the RELATED property of alarm's TRIGGER: https://www.kanzaki.com/docs/ical/trigger.html
It would be nice if khal was able to specify those. I think a simple flag on the alarm line would be enough UI-wise to do it.
