These are all the same pattern D.M that can easily be added to locale data.

> 31.08.12
> 31.8.12

These are full dates, just with 2-digit year, and covered by the automatic
D.M.Y full date pattern, input is already possible.

This exactly is not wanted. People were complaining that too many input
patterns were converted to date even if the input did not resemble a date in
the selected locale, which is why the new behavior was implemented. In future
releases the date acceptance patterns will be editable to suit everyone's
needs.
