Date format not updating with User Settings Interface Language

[gavin-murphy]

WIth latest SilverStripe 4.x the Site Settings no longer have user-specified date formats. Instead, there is a higher level 'Interface Language'.
Our users are expecting that new field to drive date formats elsewhere in the CMS, including the queued jobs views.
E.g. a user with English (US) might expect a MM/DD/YYYY format, whilst an English (UK) user might expect DD/MM/YYYY, say.
The queued jobs module doesn't appear to change date formats in accordance with this user setting.

Are you referring to date formats in the "Jobs" admin area?

[gavin-murphy]

That's correct. There's a mixture of expectation vs viewed reality with things such as when viewing an existing record: Start After field actual displayed value -> 13/06/2019 09:00 help text beneath field -> e.g. 2019-06-12T10:38:17 This and various other, but similar, UI/UX anomalies are causing the odd issue for some clients / users.
