3852	[patch] newforms SelectDateWidget fails to display saved values correctly, lacks 'blank' choices	Jeff Hilyard <jhilyard@…>	nobody	"SelectDateWidget in newforms.extras.widgets displays January 1, 2007 regardless of value entered.
render() assumes the '''value''' parameter is a string but it is being passed a datetime.date.
It sets the year, month, day to None before rendering the individual select tags.

This minimally invasive patch works for me but should be rewritten by someone with knowledge of how things are '''supposed''' to be - if value is supposed to be a datetime.date then that case should probably be handled in the ""try"" not the ""except"" as I've done."		closed	Forms	dev		duplicate	SelectDateWidget		Accepted	1	0	0	1	0	0
