Bug Description
Ever since Evolution was removed and Thunderbird put in as the default mail client, there is no inbuilt calendar application that can be used. Also, thunderbird does not ship with lightning addon by default.
As seen in the latest precise pangolin build of 13 February, the default calendar application is still set to Text Editor(gedit). Please see screenshot attached.
That does not make any sense. It also shows a glaring gap in design and experience . If Ubuntu really needs to compete in user experience, I believe these small glitches need to be resolved in a LTS release like 12.04.
I believe it will be good to either include lighning with Thunderbird or add another calendar application as default.
