Views - Month - numberOfWeeks (set to 6 weeks), do not need to see previous or next month week.  Only show days of the selected month.

This is OK:

This is not, unnecessary week of Aug 03.  The extra week adds to a busy calendar clutter.

The Kendo UI ListView widget supports setting the selected items via the select method. Up to version 2022.2.802, calling select() triggered a change event. This is no longer the case.

You can see the different behaviors in these two DOJOS: 2022.2.802 vs 2023.1.117 (the item gets selected after a second to make sure the dataSource has finished loading).

Add a hidden input to store the current value in it at all times, and a visible display input that has the month/day/year or current value displayed in it; it solved all of the issues and is currently implemented on numerous other Kendo form input controls.

This will make the DateInput compatible with JQuery Unobtrusive Validation.
