There's APIs to interact with the calendar store; no calendar application should ever be accessing the calendar files directly—so apps like Fantastical are probably already OK.

I haven't deeply examined the sandboxing rules and capabilities, but I think that this could improve application interoperability because they will need to work through APIs directly rather than through filesystem backdoors.



The prominent API for this type of data exchange is AppleEvents, which apparently won't be allowed without special permission.

(Perhaps there is some other sandbox-friendly way to get calendar info ... I don't know.)
