I get into a morass whenever I implement a TextField where the input is parsed to some other value type (e.g. LocalDate). Like, do I hoist the parsed value and hide the text input as internal to the composable adding the TextField?

Ah, I think the solution is to make a DateFieldValue to wrap both TextFieldValue and the parsed output

[babel]

maybe take a peek at VisualTransformation?

[tad]

Right, that's for displaying the formatted value; I was running into dealing with multiple sources of truth for the input

[tad]

but wrapping it (like what TextFieldValue does) solves that problem pretty nicely
