Won't fix
FS#2629 Validator date meta

Validation Output: 1 Error
Error Line 10, Column 54: Bad value date for attribute name on element meta: Keyword date is not registered.
In earlier version of HTML any name/content combination for meta elements were valid. In HTML5 in needs to be among a set of defined ones [http://www.w3.org/TR/html-markup/meta.name.html]. As HTML5 is still in the making and is taking proposals for more of those combinations, it is highly likely that either "date" or something equivalent like "published" or "date-modified" will be among the final spec.
Until then it doesn't make sense to "fix" this, but wait for that part to be finalised and then change the setting accordingly.
