I am wondering about that.
When I use the date picker for a December date, it isn't the default
for the next entry. The next entry will have 1899 until typing starts,
then it will have the "current" date -- the date of the paper.
What DOES change is that next time, the cursor will be somewhere in the
date field. Then it is easy to spin the wrong number. If I hit "-" in
the month field instead of in the day field, the result is December.
