Consider LocalDate.At(LocalTime) and LocalTime.On(LocalDate)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

From http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14724399 it's clear that the LocalDate 
+ LocalTime operator isn't terribly discoverable.

We should *consider* adding methods which are more discoverable (the 
Intellisense behaviour when you put a dot after a variable name does make 
methods more discoverable than operators...)

No urgency here - it'll be trivial when we've worked out what's appropriate.

Small extra point of info: Java 8 has LocalDate.atTime, and LocalTime.atDate.

Funny, I had thought we had this already, then I realized I had extension 
methods in my  project that I added long ago for this very purpose!  At the 
time, I hadn't realized that the + operator had been implemented at all, so my 
extension methods were implemented by raw math against ticks.

Personally, I like On and At the way you have specified in the issue title 
better than I like the Java8 naming.

(Given the support for On/At, and that I haven't thought of anything better, 
I've just gone ahead :)
