Hello,
would it be possible to make default "_t" format more precise than seconds? Ideally ms or us.

The reason for this is following:
If you have some log parsing tool that puts data say in ElasticSearch for later processing, and you want to filter this data by time of something happening, one second is really really coarse grained. A LOT of events will happen in one second, and we've had problems with this in other applications that log with low precision (seconds being most precise).

I don't think this would slow down the logging process or make the logfiles too big, I believe this will have mostly benefits.

Thank you.

Default time now has ns, displays like 16:24:36.929790

This should probably be closed.
