Not a bug.
Works fine with the recent trunk.
Do this in your action:
DateTimeConverter converter = (DateTimeConverter)
FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getApplication().createConverter(Date.class);
converter.setPattern("dd/MM/yyyy");
date.setConverter(converter);
Trinidad itself registers the "correct" DateTimeConverter for the
classes Date and calendar.
So, using this syntax is much more safe.
I guess you were using the one from the API JAR, but actually that guy
that provides the client-side JS, is an extended DateTimeConverter,
that extends the one from the API. And... to not have dependency to
-IMPL in your app, this is the second reason to use the
.createConverter() method,
offered by the JSF spec itself.
