I would really like to be able to define another application to be executed when clicking on the clock applet than the xfce calendar aplication. A simple "command" option in the applet config would do. This removes the need for me to write a new applet to go with my calendar of choice.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open properties of applet
2. no "command" option
3.



Expected Results:  
simple text input labeled "command" that defaults to "xfcalendar" or "orage" but can be changed to whatever calendar app you want.

On xfce 4.2 the clock applet executed xfcalendar when double-clicked. On xfce 4.3 this behavior seems to be gone (but that might be my config that fails). I see "orage" added as the new calendar app, I suppose bindings between the applet and "orage" are intended.

I don't think this will happen at least in the
orage-clokc panel plugin. It does much more than just
starts orage, so with startup script it looses the current ability to start and
hide orage.

in 4.4 clock plugin does not start anything and I don't think it will be changed for 4,4 at least; probably never.
