We sill have to treat different cases in different bugs, this one will stay as
Task Bug.

For everything we do ISO should be considered (bug not be followed slavish):

@Johannes Weberhofer:
I agree with some of your arguments, with some I do not. 

* Compatibility  (objected)
May be some power coach drivers will want a horsewhip instead of an accelerator
pedal in their cars, but of course, it is improbable that any car manufacturer
will fulfill that request

* Usability   (agreed)
Yes, of course. I have been used to input dates many only by numerical keyboard
(and I it's horrible that I did not find a way to input a particular day of the
month without moth input from numerical keyboard).
In a cell with date formatting any valid date input for the current
localization has to be accepted and to be transformed to date view in
accordance to 
But: There is no need to accept invalid inputs. This only destroys unambiguity
of inputs.
I submitted "Bug 52288 - [DE] EDITING: Allow truncated date inputs from numeric
keyboard" for this particular problem, may be additional bugs for additional
localizations should be submitted.

More comments following soon.
