If the users types '1' how would you know if the user means "01", "11" or "12"? However, 2-9 could always be interpreted as 0+digit. You could always hook into the keypress event and detect a leading digit that isn't a 1 with the following regex: /^[2-9]/ then just set the input to be 0+digit. The same thing could be said for the last 4 digits as well. If a user types 2 digits, you could expand that out to the full 4 digit year.
Just wanted to throw those ideas out there. Thanks for the feedback!
