The field does currently not have a default value, so the HTML 5 date selector in chrome shows me dd/mm/yyyy + some arrows to set each part of the date which I didn't find convenient as the month/year are likely to be current or previous one. But I have now noticed that the bigger arrow on the right shows a calendar displaying current month so it's only 2 clicks to get to a recent date :) > My understanding is that users are typically not interested in whether > there's a relay with a given IP address right now but weeks or even > months back in the past. > > A big downside of not requiring a date is that people may only put in > an address, because that's much more convenient than also looking up > the date, obtain a positive or negative result, and implicitly assume > that the result for a few weeks back would have been the same.
