Description
I notice that fman currently always shows 2 digit years in the Modified column. I would like an option to keep the short date/time format exactly as specified in the locale rather than having fman mangle it

Research direction
Start in core/init.py around lines 101-102, where fman changes the locale's short date/time format, and trace how that value reaches the Modified column. Define where the option is configured and verify that enabling it preserves the locale-specified format, including four-digit years.
