From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601

ISO 8601 Data elements and interchange formats – Information interchange – Representation of dates and times is an international standard covering the exchange of date and time-related data

It would be nice to have the option of having the date displayed in a standard, international format, instead of in the North American date format. It would make it a lot easier to pattern match on log timestamps, for instance.

In general, I wouldn't mind editing a config file in order to specify my own format. Editing Objective-C code is a little more daunting for me.

Oops, I didn't do due diligence before posting this issue. This app just uses the short date format set for your system. Just edit System Preferences > Language and Region > Advanced... > Dates > Short
