This led me to the question why the form model does not give the styling hint to the pipeline. Of course, it is styling, but for the date it is somewhat datatype centric. In the stylesheet there is also a comment about getting the convertor's format out of the form model - this issue would be solved too.
WDYT?
Something like that's needed indeed. I wouldn't insert the styling hint though, but let the datatype and convertor produce some XML, like:
<fi:datatype type="java.lang.Date"> <fi:convertor pattern="dd-MM-yyyy"/> </fi:datatype>
I like it.
