Whatever action makes sense from the date control. When you do that 
action, the modal dialog calendar popup appears. When you 'tab' off of 
it, it disappears.

Perhaps it wouldn't actually be modal, but it would only be visible when 
the date control has focus and the user did something to expand it. Or 
maybe there'd be a property to auto-expand it when the date control got 
focus.

But my only point was in the implementation of the popup. I think it 
should be in a frame separate from the frame the date control resides 
in, instead of being squeezed in to that frame's design. Much like a 
popup menu.
