Yes, changes were made to the Query Builder so that it now honors the user's Windows Regional settings when entering date values.
Here is a longer-winded explanation of how cultures are used in EG:
There are two cultures in play... a (non-UI) culture and a UI culture.
1) The (non-UI) culture controls how dates, times, currency, etc. are formatted and displayed. By default, this culture is automatically picked up from the user's Windows Regional settings. So, dates, times, currency, etc. will appear according to your Windows Regional settings (unless there is a bug, like above!). However, this can be overridden by specifying the /culture command-line option.
2) The UI culture controls the language resources that are loaded (the language in which translated strings are displayed in EG). We refer to this as the EG display language. You can change this in EG's Tools->Options->General->Enterprise Guide language settings->Display language. Or, you can override the display language by specifying the /uiculture command-line option.
Having separate cultures allows you to independently control the EG display language and how dates, times, currency, etc. are formatted.
Note: If you specify the /culture command-line option without also specifying the /uiculture option, the value specified in the /culture option is used for both cultures (formatting of date, time, currency values AND EG display language).
