Comment (by Michael):
Replying to [comment:14 Claude Paroz]:
> I had a look at your issue. This is an issue with the `<input
type="date">` widgets. And this is exactly why Django doesn't use
`type="date"` by default. With those inputs, browsers are forcing their
content to the format of the current active browser locale, whatever the
language of the page language. So Django cannot do anything to change
that.

Correct me if I am understanding you incorrectly, but what I think you are
saying is Django does not provide a `<input type="date">` because the
`value` should be set according to the active browser's locale, which
Django doesn't know server side? If that is what you are saying, I
disagree, it is always in the format "YYYY-MM-DD", see:
Date input on MDN: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-
US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/input/date
Date Time Format on MDN: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-
US/docs/Web/HTML/Date_and_time_formats#date_strings
> HTML uses a variation of the ISO 8601 standard for its date and time
strings.
It would be very simple to have Django render date value's server side
such that it works correctly with `<input type="date">`, it just has to do
less ....like in Django 4, instead of forcing the default language's
DATE_INPUT_FORMAT to the settings language.
I opened an issue about this recently:
