In desktop mode, let me enter (and parse) raw times as text strings in the event editor window, instead of forcing separate hours / minutes spinbuttons time widgets
Originally reported in GNOME Bugzilla #775442 by @jfft:
When editing the advanced properties of an event, on a non-touch device like a traditional computer, I don't want to deal with that weird clicky widget for entering the times, it's not fast enough for me. Especially when the system tries to second-guess what I mean and gets it wrong (bug #91 (closed))
I want to just type in:
1930 2000
or
19h30 20
or
19:30 20h00
...and be done with it. No clicking with small increments, no tabbing a bunch of times.
If you want to have those touch-oriented widgets available, please only show them when a touchscreen is present on the device and/or make them available with a clickable dropdown arrow just like the date picker widgets, and let me type raw text in a TextEntry besides those arrows instead, particularly on devices without a touchscreen.
