Why Linqer doesn't convert date strings?

[Date strings can have different international format, which is impossible to recognize. Day and Month position in a date string are unknown.
To avoid hidden bugs Linqer leaves date string for the manual conversion. For example "01/10/2009" can be manually converted to new System.DateTime(2007, 1, 10) or to new System.DateTime(2007, 10, 1) depends on the Day and Month position in the string.]
