I'm in favor of full resolution time stamps wherever possible, even though it is not possible to set such timestamps to their full resolution until the kernel folks provide a better interface for setting times. I take the silence on whether changing the format of %A as consent that no one will be overly impacted, particlarly if you document it in NEWS. - -- Life is short - so eat dessert first!
