> Moreover, some of HTML5 elements (e.g. <input type="date">) can be reimplemented with this API. Currently, some locale-specific data are embedded in the implementation (e.g. http://trac.webkit.org/browser/trunk/Source/WebCore/Resources/calendarPicker.js?rev=122212 ), which may not be scalable for tens of languages/locales.

I have never used v8-i18n, but does it apply OS's setting correctly?
A locale data in ICU doesn't match to the system's locale data (Bug 84388), and ICU doesn't reflect user's customization; e.g. One uses "fr" locale, but he can change the system locale setting so that '.' is used for decimal separators.
