Restarting GC with open invoices results in all date fields collapsing to the original too-narrow width.

This is why I try to avoid closing GC (I typically have 30+ invoices open).

Creating a new invoice also results in a narrow date field.  As far as I can tell no adjustment to field widths is carried forward to subsequent invoices.
