Date/Time Picker Essential Improvement

Hello. For the date picker (even time picker), it would be essential to make data input very easy, most especially for the year. For example if I were to use it to collect birthdates, the user would have to scroll forever to get to older years.

Function should be easy enough to scroll through years and months. Also if user can just type only the numbers under a format like MM/DD/YYYY - without the need to type slashes, that would be good too.

Same case with the time picker, not very user-friendly to input especially on mobile.

I would think these are a necessity, otherwise I’d consider the field type unuseable.

So I’ve been looking at this as well, and ends up that it requires a simple change - but I don’t know where in the code to do it.

DIVI Engine Form Builder already uses the ui-datepicker-month which is originally from the ACF plugin.
But ACF, unlike DIVI Engine, uses the element SELECT instead of SPAN, as seen here:

All I need to know is where in the PHP code this setup is and it can be tweaked really easily.
