And DateTimePicker too. Currently binding to DateTime type property in XF is a pain in the @$$!

@weitzhandler exactly. https://github.com/Microsoft/xaml-standard/issues/169

@insinfo But forget it... Doesn't look like all these controls are coming anytime soon. Xamarin is stuck in its "least common denominator" mantra of only implementing controls that are provided natively on all platforms. This really sux. They should have at least provide those in another namespace to make it clear. Sometimes I feel I could build an app faster with Ionic. Sometimes developer time also matters, not just performance.

@weitzhandler I am still hopeful that a great XAML standard will be created here, complete, robust and that will make life easier for the developer.

I agree with you:

Sometimes developer time also matters, not just performance.

Technically speaking the developer's time always matters, as that is what their company is paying for. 👼

Again, I hope any control that deals with date and time should have property about timezone in it just to make sense. Shifting from one timezone to another could cause some messy problems if it is not considered from the control layer.

@KySpace You could give an XAML example of your suggestion so I can update the initial post with your suggestion.
