Creating events should return eventId #414

How can I add custom eventId from f.e secure storage when i'm adding new Event to Calendar? I need it to add features like deleting event by Id. In class Event there is property eventId, read-only and i can't set value to this property.

I'm unsure about it.

I think our event IDs are set by the system itself, which doesn't seem to accept custom IDs.

It would be very useful to set custom IDs, but we might need to do an extra layer of conversion, which can be slow and/or troublesome.

Yes, i know that your event Id's is a read-only property, but how can we read it? when I want to print it after adding event, the event Id is null so i haven't any option to get this value to delete this event in the future.
