I don't believe this is mergeable in current state but hoping that this is moving in the right direction.
Currently this allows writing of datetime arrays as their integer values but round-tripping is not really possible. I think what we might want to do instead is add a format for a struct that contains the value and information around the precision, so something like
i:val:2c:unit
(untested)
