Version:            (using KDE 4.2.4)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

It would be good to be able to create reminder presets (standard reminders, saved for later use), which can be enabled/disabled for any todo/event as required.

For example, I would create a "remind me every 2 days for two weeks before the start", and a "remind me every hour for two hours before the start", and depending on the importance of the event, I could just click the check-box for the appropriate reminder(s), instead of having to re-create them for each event, as I currently have to.

Basically, this would require adding a check box and a "Title" field to the current reminders, and storing all reminders in the korganizer config file, which could be copied into/deleted from  events/todos as needed.

Eventually, it might also be good to be able to create groups of reminders, which can be selected a a group (ie. create a bunch of different reminder types for "important" events, and another set for "leisure events").

I also would like to see a default set of reminders that is just set whenever creating a new event, and can be disabled/removed with own click.
As a bit a of an ADS candidate (calendars are our best friends), I typically just put 3 reminders for any and all events: 1 day, 2 hours and 1 hour before.
It's a bit of a simpler ask than OP's I believe, but also half way there, so could be considered a milestone.
Currently, Korganizer actually has this, but with just one default reminder (https://superuser.com/a/1468188/403260).
On a possible roadmap:
- my requirement could be a next step, simply adding the option for more default reminders in that exact menu ( Menu -> Settings -> Configure KOrganizer -> Time and Date -> Default values -> Enable reminders for new events / to-dos).
- The next IMO would be to make that one easier to find (what is it doing under "Time and Date" and behind five clicks?).
- Further steps would lead up to OP's idea of several groups of default reminders (important, leisure, etc.)
