  // The completeDate is the date the todo was completed,

  // A todo isCompleted if any of the following is true:
  // - percentComplete is 100, or
  // - completedDate is non-null, or
  // - status is COMPLETED.
  // Setting isCompleted to true will
  // - set percentComplete to 100, and
  // - set completedDate to the current time, if it is not already set, and
  // - set status to COMPLETED.
  // Setting isCompleted to false will remove percentComplete, completedDate,
  // and status properties.  (This returns the todo to its state at creation,
  // in terms of completion-relevant properties.)
  //
  // If you would like to take advantage of the full, confusing disaster that
  // is the RFC2445 VTODO status state space, you can feel free to set the
  // fields individually, instead of setting isCompleted directly.  (And then
  // hope that whatever else you're talking to has the same set of rules for
  // determining if something is completed or not.)
  //
  // Setting percentComplete, completedDate, or status individually does not
  // affect any of the others at present.  (E.g., setting the percentComplete
  // from 100 to 50 doesn't clear completedDate, or change status to
  // IN-PROCESS.)  It's not clear that we want any more magic than a simple
  // property to control "all complete" vs "not complete in any way".
