Date-picker is not setting the value when entered via keyboard

[MaickelHubner]

Bug, feature request, or proposal:

When I type (via keyboard) a value in the format DD/MM/YYYY, the component is not setting the entered date

What is the expected behavior?

When entering a date via keyboard, it is set in the component

What is the current behavior?

When entering via keyboard the date is null

What are the steps to reproduce?

Providing a Plunker (or similar) is the best way to get the team to see your issue.
Plunker template: https://goo.gl/DlHd6U

What is the use-case or motivation for changing an existing behavior?

Which versions of Angular, Material, OS, TypeScript, browsers are affected?

Angular 4.2.3 Material 2.0.0-beta.7, MacOSX 10.12.5, Typescript 2.2.2 and Safari 10.1.1

Is there anything else we should know?

My code (no secrets) - Local format and time: Brazil UTC-3:

<md-input-container *ngIf="atualiza_data_fim">
<input mdInput placeholder="Até" [mdDatepicker]="dataAte" [(ngModel)]="data_fim">
<button mdSuffix [mdDatepickerToggle]="dataAte">

<md-datepicker #dataAte [startAt]="data_fim" [touchUi]="true">

Is it working with a MM/DD/YYYY value?

[MaickelHubner]

Yes, @willshowell. If I inform in MM/DD/YYYY format it works.

Look at some of these other issues for working with a dateadapter. The datepicker can't automatically know which format you wish to use, so you must instruct it via some configuration.

@julianobrasil's plunker here shows it working with brazilian portuguese locale https://plnkr.co/edit/FlgGpjqyDlypas0VZJzo?p=preview
