For example, consider a date picker. Quite often, whether trying to
make dates or selling flights, there is a known set of
(non-consecutive) days that are possible, so we would like to
write, say,

<input type="date" id="date" name="date"
value="2011-04-01" list="datelist">
<datalist id="datelist">
<option value="2011-04-01" label="April 1st">
<option value="2011-04-08" label="April 8th">
<option value="2011-04-09" label="April 9th">

I was thinking.. what about allowing big time spans, like: from April
1st to June 30th? Giving that the date has "-" as date element
separators we could not use YYYY1-MM1-DD1-YYYY2-MM2-DD2. Couldn't this
be useful? Even more common might the usecase where a date must be from
some date onward (or until some date). How is this addressed?

I assume that this is only a problem if you need to allow/disallow several periods in the same date picker. For one single period, or allowing dates only from or up to some date, you can use "min" and "max" attributes in the input type=date element.
