+1 I would like to see a Date/Time/Picker remain a part of core as well. However, I find myself getting confused are we talking about.
Are we talking about one of the full blown fields on the Dates example page? http://www.wicket-library.com/wicket-examples/dates/ Or are we just talking about the Datepicker component?

It would reduce barriers to entry, provide a common good looking, functional datetime component that would work for 90%+ of the cases, that most people would use, understand, and be able to debug and support. It doesn't preclude the use of other date time components, but as a developer using a framework, I prefer common supported out-of-the-box components to other libs.
