You would also need a validator based on DefaultValidator (as
per John's response to my original message).

The following are the obvious difficulties:

1. i18n - allowing for different formats for different locales.
2. date, time or date-time - the user may want to select from
one of these (or even components of these).
3. Input format - dates are a pain to enter in forms.  Often
it is nicest to present a date as a series of three selects.
How would this map back to a single intake field?
4. Actual date validation - what should happen when an
invalid date is presented, for example Feb 30?

Cheers,

Scott
