Feature Request: make it possible to embed a single display in an external website, but have multiple calendars' events shown on it, possibly at different privacy levels.

In other words, it would be nice to be able to embed the same display you get when you log into Google Calendar into an external site, but with privacy controls.

Use Cases: - University Faculty/Staff: A professor may have one calendar for each research group or lab he/she is associated with, as well as one for any of their classes and possibly a personal calendar. Each of these could be added to a single calendar display embedded in the professor's personal web page so that students could identify when that professor is available.

- Small/Home Businesses: The webmaster of a small business may want to put all of the employees' availability on a calendar on the company website for clients to use when scheduling appointments. By implementing a mashup, each employee could retain control of their own "Availability Calendar," and the web display would remain up-to-date.

- Individuals: An individual may wish to have different default privacy settings and/or different colors for different types of activities, yet still publish their entire schedule on a single display. For example, a soccer mom may want to have the soccer team's schedule publicly visible as one calendar while having her kids' academic events as a separate, private, calendar.
