Out of curiosity, is there a plan to add the date range picker from the Alarm Journal as a 1st party component?

It would be fantastic not to have to build something like this from scratch whenever you want to provide a page that limits the amount of historical data a user could pull at once. Plus you guys have already built this once, why duplicate the effort!
