Then people can package them in their own private package. Else they can just use Date readFromString:. This is as simple as this.

My bad. Sometimes I forget that pharo is just a research vehicle, nothing more. Then people can choose another programming environment that tries to be useful and usable. This is as simple as this.

It is not possible to use the transformation facility as user should now provide a pattern.
