Is there a way to make the “Today” tile stand out more clearly in the calendar month view? The currently selected day is displayed with a light gray background and stands out, but the actual day is only modestly marked by the day number. With many entries in the calendar, it is therefore difficult to recognize. I would therefore like to see a user-selectable background for the current day.

This can be done with css:

/* today bg colour for multiweek & month */
.calendar-month-day-box-current-month[relation="today"] {
  background-color:  lightgreen  !important;
}

/* today bg colour for week */
.day-column-today .day-column-heading {
  background-color: lightgreen !important;
}
