22538	Support for HTML5 Date and Time input fields	me@…	nobody	"By default, the input_type of fields of type DateInput, DateTimeInput, TimeInput in the file django/forms/widgets.py is ""text"". This is because these fields inherit from TextField class which has input_type = ""text"".

If we change the input_type in each of the classes to their HTML5 specified equivalent, forms will be better.
