--- Comment #1 from Aron Budea <baron at caesar.elte.hu> ---
I understand your concerns, and can see this being a problem. However,
unfortunately the suggested behavior would cause a lot of annoyance and
confusion for users in different countries where a different format is used
instead of Y-M-D. Not only because they aren't used to it, but also because a
lot of different programs use locale-dependent date conversions.

However, what if it was more apparent for the user how their input was
converted, or will be converted to a date? Is there a way to show this on the
UI?

Dear UX team, can you consider ideas for making date input less error-prone?
