I sure hope so!

I'm in the process of implementing it right now.  The reading support
was already there, except that it doesn't appear to support the entire
spec for timezones.  It wasn't saving records at all, but I've got
that.  Right now, if you hit apply in the dialog, it'll add the REV
field.

I haven't (yet) allowed display of the field yet.  I'm not quite sure
where to do that yet.

In any case, unless there's something against having it, I'm willing
to implement it (and reimp it until I get it right).
