2889	[patch] Calendar widget has limited usefulness for past years	Robert Bunting	nobody	"The calendar widget in the admin interface is nice enough, but is not very useful for choosing dates which are far from today.  For instance, for entering date of birth, it can't sensibly be used.  You can only skip back one month at a time, which is a lot of clicks to get back to my date of birth (before unix epoch :()

I'd very much like the widget to have arrows to go back/forward a year at a time as well.  Something like '<<' '>>' added to the existing '<' '>' buttons.

I'm just submitting to see if anyone has this already as we could patch it in, or if this is a duplicate of another request.  If not, I'll have a go at a patch myself, and submit it here.

[I'm currently running the POP branch at r3753 which has trunk as far as r3731]"	defect	closed	contrib.admin		minor	duplicate	calendar widget javascript admin		Someday/Maybe	1	0	0	0	0	0
