If we are going to support this then we definately need a button to do it. A 
lot of people do not know that you can type text in the date edit and 
making them look it up in the (non-existant) help file is not veryu useful.

This would be tough to get right, since the date is not processed until 
something requests it from the date edit (or it looses focus). The problem 
occurs if the user enters a date, then clicks 'Ok', at some point the 
warning dialog will be displayed but the edit dialog will then disappear.
