Nothing to add, just noting that I would be interested as well for anyone who has the time/energy for it.

What I was thinking of doing would just be one template edit and then setting in admincp that user MUST set birthday upon registration. That way they always (well, most of the time) will set their correct birthday. Maybe giving a 2 week notice that you will be disabling the changing of birthdays soon, and if they want their birthday in the DB, they must do it now or never.

OK, I figured it out. If you go to edit templates, then to Modify User Option Templates>>modifyprofile_birthday and delete all text in that template, the birthday option completely disappears from the user's viewpoint, but you can still change the birthdays via the admincp. I think that's how I'm gonna do it.
