Datepicker overwrites manually entered dates.

Description

When I click on a input field which has a datepicker attached to it, the widget opens.

But when I then enter a date with the keyboard and hit enter, the entered date is overwritten by the currently selected date in the datepicker widget.

The widget does not double check if the code in the form field has been altered since the widget was opened. (Line 2111)

From an accessibility standpoint this makes it impossible to enter a date by keyboard on a website where the datepicker widget is automatically opened on focus.

Hi sbaechler,

Thanks for taking the time to contribute to jQuery UI, but I'm actually not seeing this issue: http://jsfiddle.net/tj_vantoll/tRdpr/. When I enter a date with the keyboard and hit enter the appropriate date is used. Can you confirm you're using the latest version of jQuery UI, and if so can you tell me what browsers you're seeing this behavior in?
