--- Comment #3 from Miklos Vajna <vmiklos at collabora.co.uk> ---
I plan to take a look at this. The core of the problem seems to be that our
date control is strict: you give it a date format and then the text value of
the control has to conform to the specified date format. While in DOCX, the
date control is flexible: it can have a random string value, and optionally it
has an ISO date value, and there is a date format, which can also be random
string if wanted.

I guess the best way to show the dates from the document is to not create the
date control (go back to the old behavior) if we know we can't handle the
date's value.
