Description

The documentation for Wt::asString() indicates that both Wdate and WDateTime default to a "dd/MM/yy" format (for the date). See: http://www.webtoolkit.eu/wt/doc/reference/html/group__modelview.html#ga57b5cadd177847f51eaeb0cee23782c1.

It appears that the documentation is accurate with respect to WDateTime, but that WDate will use the currentLocale.

Ideally, it seems that both should use the currentLocale, but that might pose an issue of backwards compatibility? See also: #1827.

A small test program that demonstrates the current behavior is attached.
