Re: changing image Date added
The main reason we use intl is i18n, since strftime() is deprecated, and date() is English only. As long as only numeric values are present in a date format, we go with date(), which looks pre-Gregorian consistent. But for more localised formats, intl seems unavoidable.
It might be feasible to integrate a switch from Gregorian to Julian calendar for pre-1582 dates, but is it really worth doing? BC era wouldn’t fit into datetime db type anyway.

Re: changing image Date added
Let’s stick with what we have. If anyone is using pre-Gregorian dates, well, they’ll have to add the calendar attribute to their tags, right?
<txp:date type="image" calendar="julian" ... />Edit: ugh that’s fine for front side but this is back-end isn’t it. Ignore me. It’s late.
