Hey Sven, glad you like it!

1. Calendar sync only looks at new items as they come in.  So anything
that's on your device already will need to be rey-synced to pick up the
changes.  The easiest way to do this is to use the "Clear Database" option
under the settings menu.  After doing this you can re-sync your files and
it will re-process your SCHEDULE and DEADLINE items into the calendar.

2. The storage and edit handling aspect of MobileOrg has been completely
rewritten.  It is now much safer to edit and capture files than in the
past.  However, we still aren't editing files directly since org-mode in
emacs still wouldn't know how to handle it.  Hopefully in the future that
will change, but for now at least... we've made it safer from the MobileOrg
side.

3. Absolutely... it's already a feature request:
https://github.com/matburt/mobileorg-android/issues/146  So hopefully we
can have that implemented in the near future.
