Feature request - Calendar could use a 'goto date' feature

[exponentcms]

It's sometimes nice to go to a date, say 1 year ago or more than 3 months back/forward in a single step.

[exponentcms]

Some options...yui calendar widget requires traversing across each month back/forward

• place a text box & 'go to date' button near top of calendar
• http://dev.base86.com/app/pages/scripts/vista-like_ajax_calendar_version_2/
• http://www.tarrget.info/calendar/scw.htm#examples-demo
• http://www.openjs.com/scripts/ui/calendar/

[exponentcms]

Also looking at this one since we'll likely incorporate their scheduler widget into our calendar. It is much more robust than the YUI widget.

[exponentcms]

This is a built-in feature available w/ dhtmlxScheduler and will be part of Calendar2 module

Could begin by adding a 'Today' link/button to take you back, maybe a text box with a go button to move to a date?
