I noticed that no one in the original thread mentioned that JSpinner already 
allows picking a date and time.
(In fact, for picking a time, the UI is not too bad; the date picking is where 
the real gap is.)
Just curious if there's any plan to look at the existing functionality for 
things like:

  *   Inspiration: what does it do well or poorly
  *   Ease of migration: can someone already using JSpinner migrate without too 
much hassle?
     *   E.g., can we re-use Editors and Models?
     *   Will the new class extend JSpinner?  That sounds crazy at first but on 
second thought it's not clear to me that the semantics are wrong.
  *   Non-regressions: the new class should be "at least as good" from a user's 
perspective (not a coder's perspective; the actual user of the GUI).
     *   One thing that JSpinner gets right that a late of date pickers get 
wrong is that it's easy modify the year while keeping the day/month constant.

I don't have anything useful to add, I was just curious.
