Good, at least I did not overlook the possibility.

My current approach is to have a relatively simple elisp function that copies the relevant info (here: time) into a temporary property, based on matching tags.  With this a column view on this temporary property does the job.  It's not quite finished yet, once it's ripe I will ask for comments here.

Hm.  How would I then share topics and activities between the different courses?
