Clock button in indicator-datetime does nothing

[Gema Gomez]

None of the links inside the datetime indicator work. Press the clock or calendar app don't open, neither do the indicator settings.

[Impact]
 * Not possible to open clock or calendar app from indicator, on phone that means those apps need to be browsed/searched to open which is definitely not the fastest way.

[Test Case]
 * Open the indicator and click/tab on the clock/calendar item.

[Regression Potential]
 * Launching the wrong app or specifying the wrong app url but that won't result in worse experience than current one.

[Other Info]
 * Those changes are only applying to Ubuntu touch.

[Omer Akram (om26er)]

indicator datetime is not supposed to do that, rather clicking its entries should take us to the clock app to be able to set time.

[Nicholas Skaggs (nskaggs)]

it is valid that none of it's options work, but as Omer said, the functionality to set date/time isn't correct.

[Thomas Strehl (strehl-t)]

Ted: please also check the rest of the indicators!!!

The calendar issues are already being tracked in bug #121136, so I'm narrowing the focus of this ticket to the "Clock" menuitem, which is fixed by lp:~charlesk/indicator-datetime/lp-1227106 in 13.10.0+13.10.20131016-0ubuntu1
