little brainstorming about it:
a way would be replacing the year label with a spinbox on mouse click,
the spinbox would not look too good so it would have to be styled..
since it contains a child lineedit not really accessible the only sane way 
would be through a qstyle (using the one in plasma that styles scrollbars)
so such a widget should be in libplasma since the style is private,
so tart to put a spinbox in libplasma and worrying after to make it look good

another way that doesn't involve messing with layouts is on click of the year 
label displaying a plasma::dialog with just a textbox or spinbox in it that 
disappears on focus lost or enter pressed, in this case even with the standard 
oxygen theme wouldn't look too bad (similar to krunner)
for the month label just a qmenu
all without parents so it doesn't get on canvas
