Android's Calendar API integration
Android's Calendar API should be incorporated into Proton Calendar, because without that it lacks some fundamental features.
First, if you click a calendar event link, there is no option to open it in Proton Calendar, since it doesn't plug into that intent.
Second, widgets and great launchers (like Niagara) do not see Proton as a calendar, so its events can not be shown. Proton's calendar widget is nice, but it would be much better to have total freedom about launchers and widgets integrate.

Exactly. With Proton calendar operating in it's own little bubble it's not a calendar from Android's point of view. I'm using a very minimalist, transparent widget to show my appointments for the day, but that cannot access the Proton calendar.
Also, Android has the feature to turn to DND mode during events from a given calendar, which saves you from embarrassment during meetings, classes, ... This also can only work if Proton functions as an actual Android calendar.

Without this, calendar events won't show up on Wear OS smartwatches (watch face complications, agenda views).
