Hi, I use the code below in every page on my site but is very tedious.

I would like a parameter for this, Es "openOnFocus: true" directly in config of datepicker

$('input[data-role="datepicker"]').each(function(index, el) {
	$(el).bind("focus", function() {
		$(this).data("kendoDatePicker").open();
	});
});

This is supported by focusing the date picker using its access key, and utilizing the Alt + Down Arrow keyboard combination, as illustrated in this example:
http://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/datepicker/keyboard-navigation

Alternatively, you can utilize its open() method (http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/javascript/ui/datepicker#methods-open) from the API to trigger the popup when the input gains focus.
