Empty all-day events are hard to notice / deleting the description has a different from trying to create an empty event

Version information.

4.7.1 but I checked the commits since then, I don't think this is fixed yet

Bug description. If you create an all-day event event (no time) with a description, then edit this description to delete it, you end up with an invisible event. I only figured it out because I saw that there was an empty line somewhere.

Expected Behavior. Either:

  • the empty event should be somehow visible
  • it shouldn't be possible to fully delete the description
  • deleting the description should delete the event (e.g. if you try to create a new event with no date and no description, nothing is done)

Screenshots. In this screenshot, there's an invisible event above the two visible events. 2022-04-19-222618_1219x134_scrot

Hi Quentin, I would say this is somewhat WAI. That being said, I'd be open to a changing the behavior to display a predefined text for items with empty description (e.g., (empty description)).
