Are the tricky bits in the parsing or the calendar math necessary to get
to the end datetime? The math should be nicely handled by Date::Piece
up to the hours, where you then take at() of the start time and add to
that Time::Piece object.
If you want to do the parser and duration object, I'll happily take a
Date::Piece patch to support it.
