Hi,
this is because jQuery creates anonymous objects for the clones and
copies the object properties. For the Date object there are no public
properties, so only the empty object hull is created.
But you are right, not copying Dates correctly is a bit strange.
If you disable the copy deep flag, your date will be in the clone, but
in this case it's no clone, but a reference to the original date
object.
