You can already do that. On the invitation, there should be a "Open
Calendar" button. Click it. This should show you the appointment as
tentative. You can open the item and change the "show time as", Category,
reminder time, and, I think, label. Close the item and say "yes" to the
prompt. Then go back to the invitation and accept it. It seems to work for
me.
