Looking at many of the recurrence rules I get the impression that the 
a different design must be possible that let the connections and relations
of the different events be constructed in the client and saved differently.
So the need for the complicated rules would be gone.
Of course, such a design cannot be done easily
and I have no written down concept for it, just a few ideas.
