title: Get input value from HTML5 input[type="date"] in chrome
body: <p>In chrome, a tag like </p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;input id="picker" type="date"&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>renders as a text field. However, calling trying to get its value with something like</p>
  
  <pre><code>$("#picker").val()
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>returns nothing until a valid date is entered or picked from it's dropdown.
  I took a look at all of the object's immediate properties on a keypress with</p>
  
  <pre><code>$("#picker").keypress(function() {
      var output = ""
      for (var i in this) {       
          output += i +" value:"+ this[i] + "\n";
      }
      alert(output);
  });​
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but couldn't see my input in any of these. Check for yourself at <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/5cN2q/" rel="noreferrer">http://jsfiddle.net/5cN2q/</a></p>
  
  <p>My question is: Is it possible to get the text from a input[type="date"] in chrome when the input is not a valid date?</p>
