--------------------------------------------------------------
I have added a button (that does nothing) to the test case:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009";
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx">
<s:layout>
<s:VerticalLayout />
</s:layout>
<mx:DateField id="df" formatString="DD/MMM/YYYY"/>
<mx:Label text="{df.selectedDate.toString()}" />
<mx:Button label="Click Me"/>
</s:Application>
When using the "DD/MMM/YYYY" format it seems clicking on the button after
picking a date causes the selectedDate to get set to null. I also experienced
the same behaviour without the button when the swf loses focus (eg: switch
browser tabs or focus another application). As soon as focus is lost, the
selectedDate becomes null.

> Key: FLEX-33823
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-33823
> Project: Apache Flex
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: mx: DateField
> Affects Versions: Apache Flex 4.10.0
> Environment: Affected OS(s): Mac
> Browser: Firefox
> Language Found: English
> Reporter: Robert Hunt
> Assignee: Justin Mclean
>
> This is identical to FLEX-16656 but it appears the bug still occurs when
> certain format strings are used. I have discovered that the two letter month
> "MM" works fine but the three letter month "MMM" does not. The following
> definition caused the selectedDate property to be set to null after a date is
> chosen:
> <mx:DateField id="badDateField" formatString="DD/MMM/YYYY"/>
> EG: 14/Oct/2013
> The following appears to work fine and doesn't cause the date to be set to
> null after a date is chosen:
> <mx:DateField id="goodDateField" formatString="DD/MM/YYYY"/>
> EG: 14/10/2013
