Do you have any examples of the non-Gregorian dates being published
online? Or any examples of applications that can take non-Gregorian
dates as input?
For those who need to understand.

The era system is very common on paper form, and on labels in
supermarket at least (for those I have noticed in my daily life in
Japan). In fact it is a mix, it is not regular. Some forms have even
the possibility to deal with the two systems.
It is mostly used by officials organizations like governments.
For example this article in one of the main national newspapers: Yomiuri
「平成20年度（第１回）超長期住宅先導的モデル事業
の採択事業」
http://home.yomiuri.co.jp/wnews/20080711hg03.htm
平成20年 - this is the year 20 of Heisei Era.
The sentence says the project started at this date. You will notice
that the article has also dates in gregorian calendar, so it mixes both.
