 Wouldn't be great to have an event before displaying/changing months in 
 a calendar so a developer could update the datalist for that specific 
 month and then the datalist could be rescanned by the browser to display 
 that month?

 Something like...

 <input type="datetime" id="meeting_date">

 <script>
 document.getElementById("meeting_date").addEventListener("monthChange", 
 function (month) {
     // update datalist or directly use input methods to enable/disable 
 days...
 });
 </script>
