Yes to this. I have, lot so many developer, a set of functions to translate to and from this date format.

We can all write our own or use ones others have provided, but it would be nice if this was built into the language.

The ISO date (aka sql date) format is my favourite because it avoids the

works for sorting. I could wish it were universally adopted.
