I'll have to have a closer look at this when I have more time....

I'm wondering if there is anything coming in future client software that
might make it possible for a user to easily choose a city/country for their
event.

Currently any methods of specifying a city in iCal clients that I have seen
or thought of seem to be a dodgy workarounds involving custom categories or
seperate calendars.

Forcing people to maintain a seperate calendar for each city is not
desirable ... most users probably wouldn't bother.
For generating event listings by city from multiple calenders it NEEDS to
know what city/area each event is in!
