discussion: feature request for new version

[g00fy-]

I want to rewrite the whole thing as there has been some bad design decisions made in the past. What I am planning to do:

1. Still have separate date-picker date-range input[type=date] directives
2. Handle positioning differently (position absolute & observe window as using current implementation breaks on some pages.
3. Change syntax of attributes/settings from max-view to something similar to ng-model-options="options"
4. Remove the template option as this creates some overhead and makes dealing with ngModelController harder. If you still want to use custom templates then you could do:

angular.module('module',[]). directve('myCustomDatePickerDirective', function(datePickerDirective){
   return angular.extend({},datePickerDirective[0],{templateUrl:'your template'});
});

1. Integrate with ngModelOptions (use update and debounce)
2. Don't require jQuery
3. Provide customizable parser that would try match format
4. Still thinking on this - support date as string (just like <input type="datetime-local"> does)
5. rename dist/index.js to angular-datepicker.js etc.

Please feel free to add any requests, usecases or suggestions.
