The behavior you are describing means the user can smash the return key very early, and will entirely miss the preview that is shown after the input was parsed and formatted.
Might make sense to decline this if you want to hold the average user's hand rather than satisfy pro users. On the other hand, consider how in MW we allow saving wikitext edits without using preview first.
"Ad-hoc parsing" in this context means that, for example, a time value is stored exactly as the user has entered it, and only parsed when a machine-readable value is needed. All this would happen server-side.
Is this even being discussed anywhere? Sounds like a pretty insane idea for a multitude of reasons.
