Date and Time
EcmaScript already supports a wide range of functions handling Date, see https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Core_JavaScript_1.5_Reference/Global_Objects/Date
but those kind of setters/getters are not very convinient when working with DateTimes. an easy way to e.g. add/substract timeranges, calculate time-diffs, etc. would be beneficial.
