Yes, but that doesn't solve the issue of communities that require full
birthdate display for approval of membership.

What would be really nice is, instead of a 'checkbox' or something the user
inputs manually (to prevent those not of age checking the box when they're
not 'of age'); is something that will do an automatic calculation given
entered birthdate information and flagging that way somehow.

I don't know how complex or simple or whatever this type of thing would be,
but it could be useful.  Obviously, it doesn't prevent someone from inputing
a false year, but I believe in the TOS it states that doing so can be
grounds for removal from the service.
