Description
Allow pasting full datetime strings into date picker inputs across the Airflow UI.
Use case/motivation
The datetime inputs in the Airflow UI (backfill form, date filters, trigger DAG form) use the native HTML <input type="datetime-local">. While users can type values segment-by-segment (month, day, year, hour, minute) or pick from the calendar, pasting a full datetime string does not work.
This creates friction in common workflows:
- Setting the same datetime across multiple fields — e.g. "from" and "to" dates close together
- Copying datetimes from DAG run listings, logs, or external tools into the form
- Adjusting a datetime by copying it elsewhere, editing, and pasting back
When working with backfills over many dates or quickly iterating between runs, having to navigate the calendar or type each segment adds up.
