(DOMTimeStamp)

> Compare Codova documentation for these timestamps:
> * Accelerometer > *Acceleration.timestamp* -  _timestamp: Creation timestamp 
> in milliseconds. (DOMTimeStamp)_ 
> * Compass > *CompassHeading.timestamp* - _timestamp: The time at which this 
> heading was determined. (milliseconds)_ 
> * Geolocation > *Position.timestamp* - _timestamp: Creation timestamp for 
> coords. (Date)_ 
> It is confusing that documentation describes all these "timestamps" to have 
> different types.
> On closer inspection, for some reason the Position.timestamp really is 
> (inconsistent with the others) returned as a Date object.
> But at least Acceleration/Compass ones seem to have same units so perhaps the 
> documentation for those ones ought to consistently say they are DOMTimeStamp.
