ISO 8601 gives more specific names.

  ISO 8601 Basic Format:         P2Y10M15DT10H20M30S
  ISO 8601 Alternative Format:   P00021015T102030
  ISO 8601 Extended Format:      P0002-10-15T10:20:30

In a way, the Extended Format is kinda nice, since it�s
almost human readable.

I could put in both the basic and extended ones, and
call the dateformats �iso8601basic� and �iso8601extended�.
The negative is that to do �iso8601basic� right, I�d also
have to tweak the �date� and �time� parts of the code too.
