Dates entered manually for a new event (or when changing the date of an existing event) should fill in a year if none is entered.

In other words, there should be a short format that does not include a year, and fills in the year as follows:
Today or later date -> current year
Date before today -> next year

e.g., if on 11/15/2006 (November 15 2006 in my current format) I enter "11/20" it should convert this to 11/20/2006. If I enter 6/3 it should become 06/03/2007.

The current behavior (at least in Lightning) is to simply ignore any unparsable input.

Reproducible: Always
Should be taken care of in bug 305270.
