Hi @bbaronSVK - apologies for the delayed response. I see, I believe it is possible to create a localized version of the date, but I am treating it as a bug.

My recommendation would be to add an attribute to the field with the ISO date, and/or to add some of the standard meta tags for creation and modification time. This is in line with the way that we'll likely treat dates in the future. (See this comment for more details)
