Title:
  Date setting in the preferences should be not be shown in ISO format

Status in Unity Control Center:
  Confirmed
Status in “unity-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: indicator-datetime

  Right now, on starting the time & date settings dialog to change the
  date, the date itself is shown in ISO 8601 format.

  This is confusing for users not used to that format. As an example a
  user in Spain will not be able to tell between the day and the month
  by just looking at the date shown there in most cases.

  The date should be shown in a way that is more locale-friendly or that
  is locale-independant but it is not subject to confusion.
