Rails core - May 2005 - :discard_year => true for date_select

Hey guys,

There''s been a patch in the queue for a few days around the
discard_year option for date_select and datetime_select.   The author
has also attached a second patch which makes similar changes, but
instead of just dropping the field, a hidden field is used instead. 
We only need one of these tickets open, and we probably should apply
one of the patches.

http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/1248
http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/1246

Could someone make a call which approach we''re after, either add a
hidden field for the discarded values, or ignore them entirely, and
close the other ticket with ''duplicate''?
