Report or calendar to show dates in Schedules?

I'm looking for a way to report on the dates marked in schedules. As far as I can tell, it doesn't exist, so I thought I'd ask before throwing it up as an Idea.

Here's my use case: I have a calendar report that plots the publish date for internal news articles. The calendar includes PTO for the editorial staff (me), but I'd like to also plot holidays. Those holidays are reflected in the Schedules. Is it possible?

    Hi there, we actually use a request queue available only to some people for all holidays/events/other non-project things we want to see in conjunction with our marketing publishing dates. We have a master editorial calendar that captures the publish tasks like it sounds like you do, and also pulls in all tasks from this project, using the Duration (to show multi-day holidays or events) instead of 'End date only. I'm not sure how to pull Exceptions entered in a calendar, can only pull people's Time Off from what I can tell. 

    If this helped you, please mark correct to help others : )

    For holidays, we have 4 requestor accounts, Canada Holidays, UK Holidays, US Holidays, and Philippine Holidays. We put days off on this accounts respectively and put them on the "Time Off" calendar as filters so folks acan turn them on or off.

      Huh: "Requestor licenses to model regional holidays"...
