Summary: Using java.util.Date in DatePicker

Initial Comment:
Currently the DatePicker utilizes java.sql.Date as it's 
expected source for the date value, which causes 
problems.  You cannot hand it a java.util.Date or a 
java.sql.Timestamp.  If it was made to use java.util.Date 
then you could hand it a java.sql.Date, a 
java.sql.Timestamp or a java.util.Date.  Which would be 
more flexible. 

The reason I suggest this is that we use Torque for our 
O/R bindings and we are allows having to create extra 
methods to create a java.sql.Date object and copy the 
java.sql.Timestamp into it.

DatePicker initially used java.util.Date, however it was felt 
that java.sql.Date better represents a real date.

Internally however java.sql.Date just makes a few depricated 
method calls illegal and provides some parsing methods. It 
still stores its value in milliseconds. So java.sql.Date 
comparisons can still be different on the same date.  Sun's 
design of the date stuff is pretty poor.

In summary I dont have a problem changing this back to 
java.util.Date, though there may be some impact existing 2.2 
applications
