We a going to create the <inputDate> component that can take a value, process that value, and then push it back to the underlying model as a strongly typed Date object.

The <inputDate> component allows to attach a converter in order to set the desired date format such as mm/dd/yyyy. So the component could convert and validate the date entered by user.
