This was not a problem with Ur/Web at all - it was a problem with the
Pikaday datepicker JavaScript library itself.

When using Chrome > More Tools > Developer Tools > Elements, I noticed that
the Pikaday datepicker was sometimes *appearing* - although sometimes too
far to the left, partially (or totally?) off screen.

Further investigation in Developer Tools showed an unusual (negative)
`left` value for the div containing the Pikaday datepicker.

A quick Google search showed that this is a known issue with the Pikaday
datepicker, with various workarounds:

https://github.com/dbushell/Pikaday/issues/304

Commenting out line 906 of pikaday.js is a simple workaround which seems to
solve the problem.
