Agreed. Although I suggest perhaps to not press for "m" as minutes,
because it really is ambiguous for "months" or "minutes", esp. in a
context like "log_rotation_age".
Please lets have the unambiguous abbreviations. Please lets make it all
case-insensitive. After all this discussion, what about a straight
forward vote? Bruce, we had those before, no?
