Feature Request

Describe the Feature Request
Currently picker is used by datetime component only but I think it is very suitable for a select interface.

Describe Preferred Solution
Selecting picker as an interface for select component like alert, popover and action sheet.

Hi
Any plans for this feature?

Would be great to be able to use the DateTime picker without the nesting DateTime component.

This probably requires some refactoring, because the datetime value needs to be stored on the picker instead on the component itself. But might be worth separating picker and input-component logic.

Currently the only workaround is to create element that is hidden on the DOM and fire the open() method.
