Text field maxlength generated by DatePicker is too small for some DateFormats

           Summary: Text field maxlength generated by DatePicker is too
                    small for some DateFormats
           Product: Tapestry
           Version: 3.0
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: Other
         Component: Framework
        AssignedTo: tapestry-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: pmf8@columbia.edu


In Tapestry v3.0-beta-3:
If the DatePicker component is specified with a format property that displays
the entire month (i.e. not abbreviated), e.g.

<input jwcid="@DatePicker" value="ognl:myDate" format="MMMM dd, yyyy"/>

the value parameter may bind to an incorrect date value during the rewind cycle.

For the example, the DatePicker component generates an HTML text field with a
maxlength="15".  If a date is selected such as "November 03, 2003", the value as
stored in the text field will subsequently get truncated to this: "November 03,
20".  During the rewind cycle, the binding of myDate will be incorrect. 
Specifically, new SimpleDateFormat("MMMM dd, yyyy").parse("November 03, 20")
will return a java.util.Date with the year as "0020" instead of "2003".
