Our UX person has asked that when the calendar pop-over appears that we are able to select dates using the arrow keys on the keyboard to move the currently highlighted date. The "enter" key would then be used to select the date currently highlighted.

We have the exact same requirement. Is this something that's on the near term roadmap?

Any progress with this issue? It should also support range selection using a keyboard and accessibility improvements...

+1. Keyboard navigation would be great, but please at least make the enter key work. Having to hit tab or use the mouse after typing in a date is very unintuitive.
