Quick summary
Keyboard users can focus on the date field of a Contact Form. However, the date picker component itself is not focusable and, therefore, not usable.
Additionally, users can enter any string: there's no validation against any date format. Site owners may want a consistent format for the responses date field.
Steps to reproduce
A clear and concise description of what you expected to happen.
Keyboard users should be able to interact with the date picker. At the very least, they should be able to enter a date manually. While they technically can, users might be confused by the lack of date format.
What actually happened
Users can't interact with the date picker using the keyboard.
