Dates read-only in Core/Form.php

Can anyone explain the rationale behind setting all date fields  to readonly='true'

See line 983 of Core/Form.php

This seems to have the effect of forcing users to use the datepicker instead of letting them type in a date.

Would it break something if I commented it out?

Sorry for the gratuitous bump, but I really don't want to break something here....

i would go ahead and remove that and see how things behave

the main issue we know about, is that we dont have a "rule" on those date objects, and hence if the user types an invalid date we will not catch it
