TemporalAttributeType does not allow for different date parsing
---------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: GEOT-1045
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOT-1045
             Project: GeoTools
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: core feature
    Affects Versions: 2.3.M0, 2.2.1, 2.4.M0
            Reporter: Andrea Aime
             Fix For: 2.4.M0


TemporalAttributeType uses DateFormat.getInstance() to parse date/times out of 
string, and the parser is static and package private.
This is bad because the default parser is locale dependent, and uses short 
format which makes it unusable for archeological
data or for high precision temporal applications (the italian default format is 
"dd/MM/yy H.mm", for example).

The date parser should be at least user overridable.
