I came across one of those; what's more, most of us will be alive when it happens. Unfortunately Cassini will probably be long gone; maybe a Titan Explorer will see it.

On January 12, 2032, Earth will partially occult Venus as seen from Saturn. Here's an image I made in Celestia, depicting the event as seen from Enceladus. There are places near Saturn space where the occultation is total, but I don't think that will be visible from any of the moons. More to follow ...

Personally I think a partial ocultation would be cooler than a full ocultation, but maybe that's just me...
