There are a couple of user-unfriendly behaviors related to the datepicker in the Alerts UI that should be addressed:
 * If a user double-clicks the datepicker input, pastes a date and then clicks outside the datepicker, the calendar quickly opens and closes. Besides it being unnecessary for the calendar to open if a user is manually adding a timestamp, a user could accidentally click on the calendar and unintentionally select a date.
 * The calendar only opens if a user clicks on the input. This differs from most datepickers in libraries like Angular Material, which toggle the calendar view by clicking on the calendar icon.

I've included a gif of the behavior I'm talking about in the first issue, as well as a gif of how Angular Material's datepicker behaves for reference.
