I think there should be an option somewhere to display the year format as we would like (0004 to be seen as 4) and so on.

From the best of my knowledge the year is usually display in 4 digits to avoid confusion with month or day.

As for year before the year 1000, they are left padded with 0 to be 4 digits too, it's looks weird I agree but the value is correct and the age calculation is performed properly.

When I go to put an ind on born in say 970, I type 970 in the date of birth box, and it tranforms into 0970. And this, to me, looks odd. Also, I cannot put a birth year, 40, as that it would have to be 0040 and the same thing with 4 to 0004. This also happens for education, occupation, contact, death and marriage dates as well. I think this should be changed, but that's just me.
