Date Validation

[Luther Baker <lu...@gmail.com>]

I have a Hibernate entity - which contains a java.util.Date.

It displays just fine in a BeanEditor ... if I intentionally enter a
mis-formatted date it correctly comes back highlighted in a RED outline etc.

Then, *when I try to click on the CALENDAR icon *- it just keeps telling me
the date is incorrectly formatted. IE: a graphic block fades in above the
field with an arrow and a red X telling me about the problem - but the
CALENDAR never pops back up to let me select.

I have to manually swipe and delete the entry in the textbox - and then
clicking on the CALENDAR icon works again.

Is that intentional? I mean, it works - but I don't think it is intuitive to
have to delete the entry before clicking on the CALENDAR icon.

Feedback from customers indicate that this sometimes is work blocker, as "the
system won't let me change the date and I cannot do anything" so, I think
this deserves a JIRA.

(Calendar should use the date if it is parsable, if not just ignore it and
replace it when user chooses a date.)
