java.util.Date,
supporting a custom java.text.DateFormat.
This is not meant to be used as system PropertyEditor but rather as locale-specific date editor within custom controller code, parsing user-entered number strings into Date properties of beans and rendering them in the UI form.
In web MVC code, this editor will typically be registered with
binder.registerCustomEditor.

The "exactDateLength" parameter states that IllegalArgumentException gets
thrown if the String does not exactly match the length specified. This is useful
because SimpleDateFormat does not enforce strict parsing of the year part,
not even with
