Yes, i think everyone who registered with a transport wanted a 
linear list of events ;-) But i think that the extra event can postpone 
this (heavy) work: where the additions were all in a separate message before
(auths), they are now all contained in 1 message. So the usual event
dialog is perfect for this.

Checkboxes for separate events seem like overkill to me: if an entity proposes
a set of changes, you'll probably want all or nothing. At least at first, this 
is the easiest and most useful implementation. Maybe later it can be refined
further (like the attachments of messages), but this will require some very 
significant changes in the UI.

cheers,
Remko
