New Date formats for Custom Fields

[mcgeehon]

When you create a custom date field and select the Date Format to be of type "yyyy 2009" to show year only, the user is presented with a full calendar from which to select a date from on the actual form.

This is confusing to everyone that uses it.  It would be great if there could be a custom date field that could list a select box that contained a list of years, months, weeks, days etc instead of having to select from a full calendar view.

I'd like to "vote" on that suggestion  Something I'm in need right now...
