Description

Per default, with "changeYear: true" the current year is in the middle of the dropdown, allowing selecting a year close to the current one without scrolling.

If I define a yearRange: "c-100:c+100" the current year is displayed on the bottom of the dropdown, se selecting a following year request a scroll operation.

It's possible to change it so that the current year is always in the middle?

Research direction

Reproduce the datepicker with changeYear enabled and yearRange set to "c-100:c+100". Start by tracing the datepicker year dropdown behavior, then compare it with the default range. Done means the current year remains centered while retaining the custom range, with the behavior verified in the relevant datepicker tests if available.
