Is it possible to use fomat masks for fields in forms 2.3 or 2.4?

I.e. I want to have a date field that is 'DD-MON-YYYY', but I think the DATE
field type only allows 'DD-MON-YY' in forms 2.3/2.4 .

Obviously I can have a char screen field and write code to transfer back and forth between a hidden database date-type field, but this seems like a lot of effort for nothing :-)
