full ISO8601 is quite large and probably not really useful in
practice.  YYYYMMDD is used in other parts of the got UI and should be
fine IMHO.

I've never used CVS date specifications so I'm not sure how much "last
friday" or "a fortnigh ago" is really useful in practice.  (have to
admit that the _seem_ to be useful.)
