This isn't an extension I want to the core of OS X but to Cocoa (changing cocoa is roughly analogous to I dunno improving my right arm).
I want a unified calendar widget. Qt has a calendar widget. GTK+ has one too.
Apple uses a very lovely calendar in the date and time preference pane. They could have shared it with the rest of us. You know so we can create a consistent user interface.
There is a calendar widget in a proprietary set of extra frameworks I could buy with the money I don't have. But they have issues with me paying with money that doesn't exist.
In general cocoa is a tremendous API. It's easy to learn, and quite robust. I'm appalled by the omission of something as useful as a consistent calendar widget.

You should write one and share it with the world. Should't be TOO hard with Cocoa - just stick together some stuff like NSDate and NSArray... right?

:D

Have you checked out PTHClock? It seems to have some of the features you're mentioning, aaron. You can pick up a copy at versiontracker.com
