Expected behavior Could you modify the DatePicker and other such input elements to emit a synthetic 'input' event when the user changes the value? You could put it behind an option like data-mdb-emit-input, with default false to preserve existing behavior.

Actual behavior Right now such an event does not get emitted, instead you get the valueChanged.mdb.datepicker event

Resources (screenshots, code snippets etc.) Seems simple to add, just call dispatchEvent(new Event('input')) on the element related to the Datepicker or other form controls.
