(As an aside, I notice _git has a max-verbose style. Not sure if we can
change that for consistency with _path_commands.)

How would you want to present the exactly match given that it inserts
nothing? In the past with the match -- description form, we didn't
include it. With the description only form it is less out-of-place.

You need to enable menu selection:
zstyle ':completion*:default' menu 'select=0'
Pressing Ctrl-D (list-choices) a couple of times will also work.
This is a consequence of the line in _dates which does:
compstate[list]='packed rows'
This could be adjusted so normal completion would dump the calendar.
But is a calendar without menu selection at all useful? Menu selection's
ability to convert a calendar date into relative days is the main use.
