Absolutely. Thanks Kevin. It would then be expressed as: X: 00:05:19, but it would probably be easy to convert it back to 5'19" in some user display format. So it brings the question of data specification as separate from data display, which shouldn't really be a problem.

Any further thoughts on that?
