Description

In GenericTypeValidator function public static Date formatDate(String value, Locale locale) uses for formatter DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.SHORT, locale).
In my opinion it should take DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.DEFAULT, locale) for not null locale or DateFormat.getDateInstance() for null locales.
