feature request: date time picker: fast month & year selection

    When you use the date time picker for dates that differ a few months from current date, the current picker will function good enough.
    Sadly I am using it for lots of dates that are 5 to 10 years ago. Going back years per month is not very user friendly. Especially since the back and forward arrows jumps up and down depending if a month has 4 to 6 week rows.

    It would be very nice to have a change in interface where you can quickly change to the months of current year, and select years from a list of 9 or 12 years.
    Alternatively a text field with current date time as text in the picker, which you can change, so the calender jumps to that date instead would work too. Maybe in a similar way as the color picker has a button for detailed inputs to change the hex code.

    As a current workaround I added next to the date time picker control, a text field control with the same label and name as the picker, which makes them connect with each other.

    Hi,

    We are using the standard DateTime component from the Gutenberg library. As I can see, in the latest WordPress, there is a possibility to change month, day, and year using separate inputs.

    Thanks!

    It seems that I am still having an old DateTime component in the Gutenberg library. So I need to get that fixed so the LZB dependency is fixed with it. Not your problem. (-:
