Cocavan, at least for me, doesn't seem too much friendly, how you are requesting for an enhancement. I think if you really want to catch the attention of a developer, remember no one is obligated to attend your request, perhaps would be better open a new bug, as a request for enhancement (changing the importance from normal to enhancement=, with a bit more kindly words. As work around, you can record a macro, assigning it to key combination or a button. This is an enhancement request to change the default format (when using Insert > Field > Date) from DD/MM/YY to some other (user-specified) format e.g., DD MMMM YYYY, YYYY-MM-DD, NN, D MMM YY, etc. Currently the form (DD/MM/YY vs MM/DD/YY) of the default date is influence by the document language and I imagine this would need to be taken into consideration as well. Platform / Architecture set to All / All. Severity set to enhancement. Status set to NEW. This bug seems like a duplicate of bug 41044. If it is, then the related bug needs to be changed to an enhancement request (as the feature has never existed).
