After further thought I concluded that not providing any labeling of
days is a bad idea. The hours, minutes, and seconds fields seem
reasonably self-explanatory given the formatting, but days not so much.
(I'm not sure whether that is the whole of Peter van H's objection,
but surely it's part of it.) I pushed the patch using this:
Time: 176460001.200 ms (2 d 01:01:00.001)
and all else as before.
