Description

The problem comes in when a user uses the min/maxYear attributes. If they are set it is supposed to set min and max points on the date picker. What is happening is that a user can enter a date outside of these boundires and the date picker will show it.

Steps to reproduce:

Here is an example:
User sets the following
_departField.maxYear = 2015;
_departField.minYear = 2009; // **** Bug here will roll back before 2009 different CQ _departField.showToday = false; _departField.editable = true; From the UI if you open the datepicker it will only advance to 2015. If you then edit the date in the dateField to 2016 the date picker will show it

Actual Results:
DateField do not honor min/max year setting. You can enter year above the max limit.

Expected Results:
Validate and restrict the year to the max limit.

Workaround (if any):

Perhaps overriding the class to add a validator.
