This does not address:

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=195837

I am using the code:

    dateString = KGlobal::locale()->formatDate(m_date, m_dateFormat);

to generate the date string.

The header file needs to have:

    KLocale::DateFormat m_dateFormat;

and you need to set "m_dateFormat" to ShortDate or LongDate

It appears to me that some additions need to be made to:

KLocale::formatDate

Specifically to add a bool option for showDayOfWeek and showYear which would be
valid only for:

KLocale::DateFormat.LongDate and KLocale::DateFormat.FancyLongDate

It should be much easier to add this to KDELibs rather than reinventing the
wheel in the DigitalClock widget.
