The impression I get, is that those extra widgets (besides the usual
edit, listbox, etc.) aren't really developped/maintained, which is a
problem when comitting for applications that will have to be
developped for a few years.

For instance, is there a calendar in wxPython that has this look and
feel, and is under active development?

Yes, but although the basic wigets are just fine, wxGrid looks a bit
like the basic TStringGrid in Delphi, ie. it's pretty basic so that
several vendors came up with enhanced alternatives. But maybe I
haven't played with it long enough.

It lacks sorting capability, merging cells with the same content, etc.
