JDateField is used on the ThreadGroup page if the Scheduler box is checked.

At present, the date is displayed as MM/DD/YYYY, which is OK for some Locales, but a 
bit confusing for the UK, as we write dates
using the format DD/MM/YYYY. [Is 1/4/2003 Jan 4th or 1st April?]

As far as I know, there aren't any Locales which use YYYY/DD/MM, so YYYY/MM/DD is 
unambiguous.

I would like to suggest changing the display format to:

YYYY/MM/DD HH:MM:SS

I suppose it would be nice to support arbitrary Locales, but that would make it quite 
tricky to determine which field the cursor is
on.
[The position is needed to implement the spinner effect - up and down arrows can be 
used to change the values.]

Note that the start and end times are held as pure numbers in the JMX files, so this 
would not affect existing scripts.

It might also be useful to support "rolling" the numbers, i.e. only increasing or 
decreasing the current field, ignoring any carry.
This could be done by utilising a modifier key - e.g. if Shift was pressed, then roll 
the number, otherwise behave as before.

Any objections? Further suggestions?

Sebastian
