Current behavior

I need to compare 2 datetime fields. They are localized so I have writen a normalizer to transform them to "YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm" form (including leading zeros).
When I compare them with greaterThan() it fails because second date is not normalized

Expected behavior

If input field has a normalizer, use it before comparing.

It may also affect greaterThanEqual, lessThan and lessThanEqual
