[Bug Report] Editors with different local default date formats cannot update the revision deadline.
The date picker for revision deadlines seems to default to the computer's standard date format. However, the date is only accepted if this is dd/mm/yyyy format. Editors whos formats are dd.mm.yyyy mm/dd/yyyy or yyyy-mm-dd cannot update the dates.
The result is "Please enter a valid date". Note this is in a standard javascript alert box, rather than a more themed modal or bootstrap error message.
See images below.
Expected behaviour:
- Either the date should be accepted regardless of local date format and correctly converted, or
- The date picker should be forced to use the accepted format.
