[Qt-interest] QTimeSpan: interest?

[Frederico A. M. Prado]

Recently I had a problem that required time span measurement and a class  
like this one would have helped considerably.

You can count on my vote for the inclusion of this class in QT. Thank you  
for sharing your work with the community.
