Steps to reproduce:
I received an event invitation via e-mail.
The message shows Title, Location, When, Organizer, empty Description, and Attendees.
Looking at the raw data of the event, by looking at the actual source text of the attachment :
BEGIN:VCALENDAR
METHOD:REQUEST
PRODID:Microsoft Exchange Server 2010
VERSION:2.0
...
Right-click on the message body in Thunderbird -> Convert to -> event
Actual results:
A window pops up "New Event: {actual event title}"
Only two fields of the new event are brought in from the invitation: Title and "Related link" (mid:.....@domain.com )
The time and date are incorrect and set at the top of the next hour (from the current time).
Location is missing.
Expected results:
The fields should be filled with the information from the event invitation.
Here is the event in the raw format with the obfuscated private information:

The two fields that do get filled in the new Calendar event are:
- "Title" taken from "SUMMARY:" field:
Title: My Event Title
and - "Related Link:" taken from the Message-ID of the e-mail message with "mid:" added in front:
Related Link: mid:12345678901234567890@domain.com
Additional information:
If I follow a different route for this event invitation: "Accept" -> "Do not send the response", the event does get filled with the correct information, except for what reported in Bug 1762304 (a set of different bugs related to the event posting via "accept").
