One issue that was important in making this decision but I forgot to 
mention: a regular .new form properly displays the jquery-ui date picker - 
I tried to use <input-many> which does JS on the client side to create the 
form elements for a new blank record, but this blank record did not pop up 
the date selector. I therefore assume the date selectors get hooked onto 
the DOM only once, when the document is loaded. when the <input-many> JS 
creates new date fields, these fields don't automatically get the magic to 
pop up a date picker. I assume either the <input-many> new row creator JS 
should be enhanced to pay an attention to this, or the original datepicker 
hooking should switch to using JQuery .live() <http://api.jquery.com/live/> 
to ensure client-side-generated items are not left out of this piece of 
Hobo Magic.
