Comment:
Before checking in a doc change that claims something works, we should
first verify it works. Adding a testcase that attempts to use this
formatting option would seem to be wise. Actually, based on #10318 and
the associated django-users thread: http://groups.google.com/group/django-
users/browse_thread/thread/5a156fbddee22d3b/e255ffea08bd3d4d, it appears
the doc is more right than wrong here -- I can't see how the existing code
is correct.
I don't know whether the right answer is to to fix the code to match the
doc (raise NotImplemented there, as it used to before r992) or fix the
implementation.
Note #10318 has a test, but that test fails on Windows due to
strftime('%s') there returning an empty string rather then a number, so
that test can't be directly used in our test suite.
