.NET version

.NET 6

Did this work in a previous version of Visual Studio and/or previous .NET release?

Worked in .NET Framework.

Issue description

We need to have DateTimePicker controls available in a WF designer that we host in our app, which is being ported from .NET Framework to .NET 6. As per https://github.com/dotnet/winforms/issues/4908, DateTimePickerDesigner hasn't been ported from .NET Framework.

Looking at the decompiled sources of DateTimePickerDesigner, it's not much code and the reason it wasn't ported is unclear. In fact, if we add a DateTimePicker to the designer programmatically, it appears there but is not clickable, and a clickable component is added to the component tray.

We'd really appreciate any suggestions on solving this.

This is a duplicate of #8508 which will track the progress of both DataGridView and DateTimePicker.
