fs->er:
We use the number formatter's "IsNumberFormat( String, FormatKey, double& )"
here. As format key, we pass the key of the YYYYMMDD format, as string, we pass
something like "20080918". Unfortunately, the number formatter is "intelligent"
enough to recognize the string as numeric value, so the returned value in fact
is 20080918 as *number*, which we then force back to be a date, which results in
nonsense.
What we would need is a mode (or extra method) at the number formatter which
tells it to *first* examine the given string with respect to the given format,
and *then* attempt to interpret it as something else. (Currently, obviously the
string is *first* examined for being a mere number, and *then* the format key is
used to interpret it).
