When selecting the same start date for a new date range, the control will close before an end date is selected

[Adam]

Description

After a date range is selected, if you select a new date range using the previously selected start date as the start date for the new range, the control will close before you select an end date for the new range. At that point, the start date will be filled in but the end date will appear to be empty. If you click on the control again and select a date, the end date will now be filled in.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Initialize a new date range picker control.
2. Select a date range.
3. Open the date range picker control to select a new range.
4. Select the same start date you had previously selected as your new start date.
   It is at this point that the control will have closed.
   
5. Open the control by clicking on one of the two date inputs.
   If you hover over a date, you will notice that the highlighting of that range occurs as expected.
6. Select an end date.

On another note, it's also worth mentioning that the Forum hyperlink on the documentation page for this control links to the Date/Time Pickers forum section rather than this one.
