[Savannah-cvs] [SavaneTasks] (edit) request for non-ambiguous date displ

++added:
Here are a few light / quick tasks for a shallow dive into the code :)


++added:

 * Savane attempts to reproduce the good i18n practice from desktop apps, 
including setting the date format using browser-settings autodetection (i.e. 
sent in HTTP requests headers). https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106026 shows 
that, in the context of the Internet and of international communities, this can 
still be confusing. While Savane had historically a strong stand against 
reimplementing i18n features that are already provided by the browser, it 
appears it is necessary to do so nonetheless. In short: add an option for users 
to select their date format, including ISO 8601 or 200X-MM-DD, or any other 
non-confusing format. That option would override the browser settings for the 
Savane website.
