So, what do people think we should allow as input in terms

d or dd - date of current month...
Note how I did not suggest supporting any of the patterns
you mention.
d (or dd) is fast to input and unambiguous, so I disagree it be
disallowed unless you are talking how it be *stored*. I agree that
for the stored freetext value, a digit in isolation is meaningless.
So I presume now Karsten is talking about defining what is
unambiguous (therefore acceptable) in the *backend* as opposed to
how frontend/middleware code would translate/transform the input
prior to storage? I had thought such a widget would be seen as
desirable on the "functionality roadmap"?
