Might be low-priority, but with %f support as a template, supporting
something to specify nanoseconds should be pretty trivial. The hardest
question will be to convince ourselves that we aren't choosing a
format code which some other strftime/strptime implementation is
already using.

In addition, ISTR that one of the use cases was analysis of datetime
data generated by other applications which has nanosecond resolution.
Unless those values are stored as epoch seconds, you're going to need
to parse them. It's not clear to me why you'd give people only half
the solution they need.
