7656	Change superclass of AdminDateWidget from TextInput to DateTimeInput	jamesbeard	Jannis Leidel	"Can we change the superclass of the newforms-admin contrib.admin.widgets.AdminDateWidget from TextInput to DateTimeInput?

The TextInput doesn't currently take any notice of newforms.fields.DEFAULT_DATE_INPUT_FORMATS. Changing it would cause existing date fields to render properly without having to patch Django locally or override half the admin framework. Unless there is another way that I've missed?

There is a related issue with the Javascript date helpers, but these can be easily overridden in an extraheader block.

Refer to Django developers post at http://tinyurl.com/5w3lmf for some more details.
