handle time elements like RDFa?

[chaals]

Google and SDL both do this already:

<div itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/CreativeWork">
<time itemprop="name" content="time content attribute"
   datetime="2017-05-19T02:59">time element text content</time>
<time itemprop="name" datetime="2017-05-19T02:59">time element text content</time>
<time itemprop="name">time element only has text content</time>
</div>

gives 3 names:

time content attribute
2017-05-19T02:59
time element only has text content

I'm proposing to match this behaviour in the algorithm for determining values. @iherman ?

Has anyone tested other parsers?

My tools (ie, the parser in RDFLib and the separate Microdata distiller) do not do this.

I would be in favour having this feature, though, just like HTML5+RDFa defines it (see HTML5+RDFa)
