Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Subscribed calendars can for obvious reasons not be edited. It is even not possible to add reminders for events from these calendars.

Describe the solution you'd like

It would be great to have the possibility to add reminders to events from these calendars also.

Reminder data is part of the event data. So technically speaking you need to edit the subscribed events.

Technically speaking it could be possible to separate event and reminder data. Other web based and desktop applications do it this way. And since it is possible to add multiple reminders to one event, my guess would be that the reminder data is stored as it's own data set. In our case we have a shared calendar which is not owned by ourselves, so we can not edit or add anything in the source system.

I do understand that reminder data is part of the ical data. Google calendar e.g. let's you add reminder settings for all events in one calendar though. (With different settings for all-day events.)
