I think this would be a neat feature. But as a first pass which can work immediately, what about using one of the multiple text expansion packages that are Org-agnostic to achieve this: Yasnippets or abbrev mode, for example? This doesn't maintain the "semantics (time still fuzzy)", but does let you define and enter time ranges in a simpler way. -k.
