GitHub source issue: #527

## Request

The current date-property picker always opens on the current month and only allows month-by-month navigation. That makes it very slow to enter dates that are years or decades in the past.

## Desired outcome

Users should be able to set distant dates without dozens of clicks — for example by typing the date directly, jumping by month/year, or both.

## Original context

> Currently we have to select date property from the calendar view of a month.

> It starts with this month's calendar.

> If we have to enter a date that is like 2-3 years old, we have to click through each month to reach that year!!

> To go back a year we have to click 12 times

> What if we have to select a date that is 30 years ago?
