Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
No.

Describe the solution you'd like
Although my system is set to English because I like it better (Spanish is my native language), I see the dates (deadline) is displayed only in anglo style (mm-dd-yy) which is ambiguos to polyglots or multi-cultural users.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Would be nice if there was a preference for the date format, including a custom one. I for on thing like dd-Mmm-yyyy (31-Dec-2024).

In theory, dates should be formatted based on your system language/locale, but in some cases this seems to not work for users because the system webview doesn't pass this info correctly sometimes (?).

For the correct date format, it's a good idea but might be a little tricky to validate custom date formats correctly.

Custom is not dynamic, it's always the same format. In my case I always abide to European/Latin American format (de MMM yyyy) or else an ISO format like yyyymmdd, but I prefer the first. But my system is in US English so it uses that weird & ambiguous format where you can't tell if it is a month or a day unless it is >12.
