To my understanding the request is about a checkbox that converts input by all
means into the given format. "Validate dates..." is not generic enough and
validation sounds like feedback. So I imagine something like "[ ] Convert data
to the specified format". And the "by all means" is what bothers me. What I'd
expect, again, is an automatic but rather conservative detection of the input
format. Without options.
