 could it be possible to show the date format and time format in a more
 user-friendly way?

 for instance, we could have a drop down with the most commonly used
 formats for each, i.e.:

 [January 1st, 2008]
 [Jan 1st, 2008]

 or, if this isn't flexible enough, we could have some kind of text field
 where the user enters his preferred date format, that we match the stuff
 inside, i.e.:

   Enter January 2nd 2003 the way you'd like to see it formatted:

   [01/02/03________]

 (then we regexp match 1|01|Jan|January (localized), 1|01, and 3|03|2003)
