well, this would be a clear enhancement _for us_, but if a user is using DIN
5008 data prior to the 1995 correction, he might have reasons to complain...  as
for Leonard, it's the "never" which worries me a bit.  

I would say "never if the locale does not say date:==dd.mm.yyyy", i.e.: "only if
the locale explicitly says so".

maybe "in case on non match with locale, prefer converting to number above
converting to date"

I agree with Leonard when he says that it would be nice if we could specify our
own date format(s) -overruling the locale- and that input data (imported or
typed) is recognized as date if and only if it matches and absolutely not 
otherwise.

if you offered this option, I would define these formats and be happy:
dd/mm
dd/mm/yyyy
yyyy-mm-dd
