Point taken, I just added the Event Type "Keynote", so one can make sure
such events get something special in schedule.

*Of* course that leaves us with the timing problem. While usual
conferences do their keynotes at the beginning of the day - I wouldn't
expect that to be the best time for a DebConf Keynote.

More like - start the afternoon session or even end the day with a Keynote.

But money *does* buy access at DebConf. In a limited form, our sponsor
pack shows what, but it does do so.
