Ah, the reason to use ISO dates. No confusion as it is the same for

It would be nice to have the option set as a default instead of relying

We don't rely

The 'European convention' is the common one - (altho' those in the US
will beg to differ, I'm sure).
On my install of OOo when I enter a date it stays as entered
(dd/mm/). Have a play with the language settings and see if that
makes any difference.
