Feature description

Event should consider the default event duration on disabling the all-day flag of an event.

Why do you want this feature?

On disabling the all-day switch, an event which was previously all-day is timed from 0:00 to 12:00. When you change the start time to 11:00 the event will last to 23:00 preserving the 12-hour length of the event.
However, when choosing a start time after noon, this will cause the event to span into the next day, which therefore requires too many clicks to select the correct end date and time.
It would be more appropriate to use the default event duration used also on creating new events.

Additional information

It needs to be decided whether the time span should be from 0:00 till 0:00 + defaultDuration or defaultStartTime till defaultStartTime + defaultDuration. The second would probably be more consistent.
