In retrospect, yes: you need to have appt loaded.

Yep, 25 years.

Sure it does: Its doc string explains that it can be set to 1 of 3
values (window, echo, nil). And the appt-display-message function
runs the function bound to appt-disp-window-function when
appt-display-message is set to window.

Yes, but `C-h v appt-display TAB TAB' shows appt-display-diary among
*Completions*, and selecting that displays *Help* with a link to
appt.el. Follow that link, then you can `C-s appt-display-format
C-s C-s C-s ...'.
