Title: Event Form with Category and Duration Fields plug-in

This plug-in adds "Category" drop-down list and "Time Spent" input field to the event (schedule) new/edit form.

The "Category" is a preset tag selector. Sever admins can select which tags should be available as the options. The "Time Spent" field is just like the "Duration" field on the task form.
