Unless there's something wrong with my install, I was trying to search for users from years ago, and when I tried to type in the date range field, it wouldn't let me. I'm not quite fond of scrolling back in a calendar 6 years ago.
I have to do something annoying like this all the time:
Copy/paste the date into a text editor, then edit the data range, then paste then back into the field so I don't have to scroll the calendar back 10 years. Drives me crazy!
Great suggestion. I don't know how many times i've wanted to copy and paste a date or type one in. Jquery does allow it, as long as it, or the form, validates the date.
