new task->private->scheduled->due: a calendar pops up. after selecting a date, the calendar stays open.
instead it should close.
- you can't select more than one day anyway
- there's no obvious way to close the calendar, one has to click outside, being unsure, if that means "cancel selection" or not.

Reproducible: Always

The reason that it stays open is that it allows you to select a date and time. Closing on the first click would make it impossible to set both without reopening the picker. Does that make sense?

somewhat., but it seems to be contrary to the usual procedures.
i'd expect it to select more than one field by doing
ctrl+click
like one does with multiple select.

My sense is that Ctrl+click would be very difficult to discover. I'll mark this bug as wontfix but please feel free to reopen if you have other suggestions how to improve the interaction.
