It doesn't cover all of it, for example week dates or ordinal dates are not currently supported. But feel free to submit any patches :)

Sorry. I'm busy with other things at the moment.

It may also be better not covering everything if it keeps performance and simplicity but I just like to understand the trade-offs.
