Importing calendar event to different calendar re-emails all invitees #587

I have multiple email accounts, so invariably someone will email me a calendar invite to different account then my primary calendar setup. Importing the ical event into a different calendar is easy enough, but there's an annoying quirk... when you import using gcalcli --calendar="someone@example.com" import invite.cal to a different calendar than the original message recipient, the duplicated event lists you as the owner and resends the invitation out to the other calendar attendees. This creates spam-- other recipients will either accept the duplicate invitation and have two entries in their calendar, or will decline and clutter up my inbox with declined invitation messages.

How do you import a calendar event into a different calendar and not duplicate the invitation for other attendees?
