Now that the tick module has been refactored, simplified (<200 lines), and is working well, the time has come to add support to display tick labels as date and time. This can probably done in just a few lines of new code by intercepting the function which populates TickCollection.tickLabels:

Hopefully we can get this working with as few lines of code as possible, then we can always add complexity later.

A logical next step is to provide smart tick spacing for weeks, days, hours, and minutes (not always multiples of 2 or 5). @Padanian made some excellent progress toward this end, but the code was moved to /dev/code/TickExperimental.cs to be brought out again when date support was added.
