Thanks for following up, and not just discarding the bug.

As per your quetions:

1) It shows (Custom) because I don't use the Belgian region's thousands and decimal separators. I use a comma for thousands and a dot for decimals, like in the US. So it has nothing to do with the date. Also when following the region's decimal notation it does not affect the date format shown in the date picker.

2)I was silly for not showing the languages immediately. I do indeed have my computer's language set to English. And that seems to be causing the problem. Because when I set it to "Nederlands", Dutch (Belgium)... it shows DD-MM-YYYY in the date picker.

So the language is the thing, and it shouldn't. Am I right? In the righthand side of the pane you see how the date should be formatted But! When I set it to Dutch (Belgium) shows the date with, not with slashes...

In my opinion the date format should adhere to what's set in the preferences as the region's formatting, not the language someone speaks.
