Description:
------------
It would be useful to have a format similar to IntlDateFormatter::SHORT, that has 
4 digit years. I know that you can specify a custom format, but that loses the 
usefulness of have locale specific formats. Eg for En_US the Short format is 
m/d/y with a 2 digit year. Now if I want my users to enter full years and display 
four digit years I need to create a custom format for US and any other locale 
with 2 digit years.

Well, that would need to be supported by ICU[1], so is out of
scope for PHP.
