I think there's everything what is needed. The fact that there are quite good existing plugins (like Kolab's Calendar) confirm that. If there's something missing we're open to add such functionality.
Thank you, Kolab is the perfect example of wasted resources: It only works with Kolab groupware, where it could have been built in cooperation with other CalDAV / CardDAV providers.
FWIW: Kolab’s calendar plugin is built with an abstraction layer for the storage backend. This would perfectly allow for a CalDAV connector. I think there even are some forks around for that.
Certainly a better option than starting a new calendar plugin from scratch as you and alec have already pointed out: it’s not trivial.
