Feature Request: “Accepted, with comments” (for calendar invites)
A small thing, and someone may have already thought of this, but you know when you get all the Accept/Decline/Tentative responses from people after sending out a calendar invite in Microsoft Outlook? If it’s a large meeting, you could get back dozens of responses. It’s tempting to sort them conveniently in your inbox and delete them all in one fell swoop. But… then .. there is often that one person (or two or three…) that put some comment in their response. IE, their response is “Decline”, but in the message they’ve put “Can’t make this, but let’s catch up 1:1 next week.”. Or, “Tentative” but in the message they’ve said “I’ll be late, can you move this?”
So, a small way to have your efficiency-cake and eat it too? Add another icon type – one that shows the Accept/Decline/Tentative response status, plus something to show that there is text in the message too. A little pencil in the corner of the icon, or something like that.
Cheers,
Eric

I’d give this a plus-one, indeed.
