I normally use en_US but I want dates formatted as DD-MM-YYYY (or using dots, slashes etc ) and I want a 24-hour clock.

LC_TIME does not work very well with most apps.

And there is a big difference between just throwing an error if a date-time cannot be parsed because of a nonextent date, and communicating it to the user in a nice way, especially without using JS.
