Comment:

 Reworking how admin works with dates is not under consideration at the
 moment. Applying the date format from settings everywhere would be too
 narrow to be productive (with localization in mind).

 There had been some ideas floated about extending to multiple date formats
 (e.g. something like "short date", "full date"), but no concrete research,
 design, or progress how would that accommodate all possibilities
 multiplied by localization contexts.

 So it goes on as-is so far.

 How to best customize this for an individual site is out of core trac
 context. I would recommend WP forums or WP Stack Exchange for questions on
 that.
