Description

Bug, enhancement request, or proposal:

Enhancement request

Detailed Reproduction Steps:

  1. Create an md-datepicker and an ng-messages block for displaying input errors from the date picker.
  2. Attempt to specify the relationship between the two by using aria-describedby on the md-datepicker.

What is the expected behavior?

mdDatepicker should support an attribute of 'input-aria-describedby' that accepts element IDs. It should be propagated down to the input element.

mdAutocomplete supports this already:
https://material.angularjs.org/latest/api/directive/mdAutocomplete

What is the current behavior?

There's no easy way to associate the date-picker element with the error messages.

What is the use-case or motivation for changing an existing behavior?

Accessibility/screen readers.

Which versions of AngularJS, Material, OS, and browsers are affected?
