    The MODX Collections documentation has a list of editors as:

    As an editor can be used any valid xtype (string) or JSON object.
    Examples:

    textfield
    textarea
    modx-combo-boolean
    numberfield
    {“type”:”number field”,”allowDecimals”:false,”allowNegative”:false}

    Are there any further editors available in Collections? Particularly I am hoping for a datepicker editor.

      What are these xtypes used for in Collections?

        Those are the ExtJS definitions for the type of field, so ExtJS knows what kind of widget to load.

            Try "datefield" as editor. It works beautifully!
