[Design] Expando Date/Time fields

[Mimi Yin]

Here's another proposal for expanding/contracting fields, this time  
in the date/time area. (I believe Daniel brought this up on the list  
as well a month ago.)

In a nutshell, can we summarize date/time information into 2 lines or  
less. Protect the user from all of the edit widgets for date/time.  
Only reveal them if they click into the date/time description and/or  
some special edit button next to it. (not depicted below)

I'm thinking there are internationalization issues here? Are there  
ways we can experiment with this idea just in English first before  
worrying about internationalizing it? (special English-only,  
experimental modules?)
