I've enabled the options "Export html description x-alt-desc from rtf body" and "set rtf body from x-alt-desc html description" on two clients. My understanding is that this is supposed to sync the formatted text in Calendar descriptions. However, it seems to be extremely unreliable - i.e. sometimes what ends up at the other end will have all the lines run together into one, all indentation lost, etc. Sometimes at "formatting borders" (i.e. between a bold word & a non-bold word), the space will be deleted, so the words get combined.
