I didn't think hard enough on this to have a steady opinion, but I guess
the right thing is to extend appt.el facilities, not org.el directly.

The job of `org-agenda-to-appt' is to make the appointments list (stored
in `appt-time-msg-list') aware both of the diary and of agenda files.

Once this list includes any appointment information you have in Emacs,
then you can use it as a basis for further calls to external tools by
running Emacs in batch mode.
