renderDateTimeField Freemarker macro ignores framework date-time format settings

[Adrian Crum <ad...@sandglass-software.com>]

The renderDateTimeField macro in htmlFormMacroLibrary.ftl ignores the 
framework date-time format settings and formats date-time fields using 
jQuery instead. Two problems with that:

1. Even when shortDateInput = true, the date and time are displayed when 
the value is a Timestamp.
2. If the value is anything other than a Timestamp, (java.util.Date or 
java.sql.Date) then the field content is localized, and any attempt to 
pass the field content to a service fails - because there is no way to 
convert the string back to the proper object type.

Why was this change made?

This change was made in the jQuery branch and merged after at http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=1044503
So I need to search in the jQuery branch. I will do as soon as I will get a chance.
My better bet would be https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-3830

Maybe it's related to this comment I made a this moment, also a bet...
