I think SIS - Sewdish Institute for Standardisation is also a preferable source for Swedish Language, and especially when it comes to computers. SIS has made a recommendation to use either 12:34:56 or 12.34.56 as the time format, and mentions 12:34:56 first. This is a description made especially for locales, and it would then take precedence over what Svenska Spr�kn�mden prescribes.
I do not find 12:34 very technical, it is very common everywhere.
