<br>I agree with this specific case because I would personally always customize the validation handling. However, following that same logic wouldn't you come to the conclusion that date inputs should not display calendars because they need to be localized? I would certainly not expect the average user to enter a valid date format of YYYY-MM-DD, so not having a calendar would make validation of dates almost worthless without a calendar. On the other hand, this is another case where I would most likely use a library like jQuery to display a calendar anyway to give me more control over the calendar. A bit off-topic, but they seem to be pretty closely related.<br>
