New description:

 When a date field in the DB allows null, the scaffolded form should allow
 the user to select a blank option.

 This does not happen in RC3.

 A quick hack to automatically scaffold blank options for date fields is to
 change line 506-509 in lib/views/helpers/form.php into
 {{{
 if (is_numeric($name) && !is_array($options)) {
         $name = $options;
         $options = array('empty' =>
 $this->fieldset['fields'][$name]['null'] );
 }
 }}}
