A tricky one...or perhaps not.
My feeling is that the datePicker is there to replace not enhance the input
field.
I'm not overly pleased with the blur() method as it breaks tabbing between
fields.
I didn't know that autocomplete could be suppressed (thank you!), but I
think that would be the most elegant solution.

Hi,
I think that it might make sense to make the plugin disable autocomplete
(set autocomplete="off" on the input element) where clickInput = true...
Do you think this would make sense? Then again, what about if a user
tabs into the field and you want them to be able to autocomplete? If
this is a consideration then maybe your suggestion is most elegant (and
I can add the blur into the plugin). Does anyone have any suggestions on
this?
Cheers,
Kelvin :)
