I’ve did some more digging on this topic. A year (or month/day) ONLY field is not exactly a "date" (that is why jQuery and HTML5 datepickers doesn’t support it).

For months and days we have a relationship type available. But for years this is simply a 4 digit numeric field OR a selectbox. I propose we deprecate the year only option for date fields.

@sc0ttkclark Any thoughts?

It sounds like we should offer this 'year-only' option as a map to a relationship field (for years in a range) or a number field (for freeform input).

Yeah that might be best. Maybe through an upgrade script?
