As outlined in the original document, it would be valuable to be able to select a range of dates that repeated over a period of years.
The most basic way to allow this behaviour would be with four sliders. The first two would specify the start and end dates, and the second two would specify the start and end years.
This ends up looking pretty cluttered, so it would be nice if we could create a custom range slider, which would look like the paper-sliders currently on the site, but with two buttons that could be moved around, that way we'd only need 2 sliders instead of 4.
One issue that needs consideration is how dates that range between years, such as December to January will be handled.
