User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:68.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/68.0

Steps to reproduce:

In a date input field:
1-Click to show calendar
2-Type in the month (08 for instance). I typed in 0 then 8.

Actual results:

The calendar is pointing at 2018 instead of current year 2019.

Expected results:

Calendar should still be pointing at 2019, or any year previously set in the year part of the input field.

We dropped down to using a free form input text instead of "date" cause that issue is confusing our users(we received complains about it). How long that is it take in average for these kinda bugs to be fixed and deployed ?

Thanks :)

Happy to take a patch for 70 but since this is triaged and set to P3 priority I'm setting it as fix-optional.
That will remove the bug from weekly regression triage.

Tweaking the patch for bug 1445207 a tiny bit.
Unfortunately we don't seem to have good way to test this.
