::-webkit-datetime-edit-day-field,
::-webkit-datetime-edit-week-field,
::-webkit-datetime-edit-year-field {
  cursor: text;
}

Currently, hovering on an editable date, year, week, or month in the HTML5 date picker doesn’t show the text cursor, which should be shown on all selectable text. With the above code, the text cursor is shown.

i’d personally leave this as it is, as it’s an opinionated webkit-only patch. and noting that if we made this work in other browsers as well, it’ll lead to a weird mismatch in expected behaviour. take chrome/windows for instance - it uses the regular mouse pointer. if this was forced to the text selection cursor, it would be confusing, because chrome doesn’t actually allow traditional text selection (only clicking to focus/select and then type in new numbers, but not click and drag selection)
