[Enhancement]: Today shortcut in the date picker does not follow rules of max & min dates

[muezz]

Is there an existing issue for this?

Description

I have two date picker widgets where one is for picking the start date and the other is for picking the end date. The pickers look like this: I have the following rules for both pickers:

• Both start and end dates cannot be older than 90 days and it cannot be more than today.
• Start date cannot be beyond end date in case end date is chosen first
• End date cannot be before start date in case start date is chose first. These rules are implemented in JS like this: Given these rules, if a user chooses a date before today as the endDate and then clicks on the Today shortcut inside the startDate widget, both fields give an error like this: This is a fairly common use-case and I think, to prevent such situations, the following two approaches can be taken to fix this:
• Automatically hide or unhide the Today shortcut if it does not follow the min and/or max dates of the widget.
• Create a new parameter in the widget properties where the user can write their own JS logic to hide or unhide the shortcut.

Steps To Reproduce

My description gives the complete use-case with the relevant pieces of code which can be used to recreate this.

@muezz thanks for raising this. This does not look like a bug and is more an intended behaviour but we'll consider this as an improvement to the existing widget

@dilippitchika here if we only want to show an error on the date input, that should be easy to implement, Do we need some other behaviour?
