Other than subclassing ucar.unidata.ui.imagery.AddeImageChooser and 
adding the necessary code to allow a selection, there is no quick fix.
I would suspect there is no way to query the server to find out a list
of days either, so all I could think of is a text box that would allow
you to specify a day and then you'd pass that along on the request.
There are many hooks in the AddeImageChooser class to add on extra
ADDE parameters.

Again, you could create your own chooser with a map selector.  Currently
the only way to do that with the existing chooser is to specify the
center point and use the lines/elem and magnifications to get the region
you want.  That's the McIDAS way. ;-)
