Shortcut for .ics import
I have a lot of events that provide an ics file. It's painful to import these at the moment - I have to go to settings (and log in each time), then hit the import button, then select the file.
Ideally, there would be an "Import event" button under the "New event" button which immediately opens the file dialogue to select a local ics file.

I just found that you can drag and drop ics files into web calendar directly without having to do to the settings!. I feel like a fool for taking this long to find it, but I think that solves this problem at least on desktop.

Alternatively, it would be nice to just drag and drop the ICS file onto the calendar pane without going through or as an alternative to button clicks.
Edit: Turns out you can do this by dragging and dropping the ICS file onto the calendar pane. Should have tried it first. -

With so many invites assuming you use Google or Outlook, we have to import the .ics. Making this quick as described above would be great.

The "New event button" should have a dropdown that provides alternative methods for adding events, such as importing .ics
