Hi Niklas,

[... time separator ...]
Is it possible to accept both . and : as separators?

No, only one is possible.

Common dateformats that LibreOffice doesn't support for Swedish include:
D/M
D/M YYYY

EU-standard (not seen that often but since were in the EU and all EU
documents ,
use this format it would be a good thing to support):
D.M
D.M.YYYY

Which standard would that be? I only know of EN 28601 that followed ISO 8601.

The SS-ISO 8601 standard YYYY-MM-DD is the most frequently used format and
the current standard for Swedish in LibreOffice. Is it possible to
support all
these formats?

You can define as many date formats (to display dates) you want by just
adding them to the locale data file starting with formatindex="50", too
many formats in the dialog may just confuse users though..

For date acceptance patterns, as long as the DMY order stays the same
within one locale also multiple separators can be used, ISO 8601 and its
YMD order is always supported internally, no need to define anything for
that.
