Creating a nullable date time picker based on SfPicker with an extra button in the footer named Clear.

Question

I need to create a nullable DateTimePicker.

So I see that there is a datetimepicker based on SfPicker. The idea is that I add a button in the footer named Clear and to set the result to null.

Is it possible to make the SfPicker nullable and to add a custom button to the footer?

Clicking this "clear" button the value should be set to null.
