I just noticed that fmt_ident() calls parse_date(), so other formats are
supported as well.

Is there any documentation describing what does parse_date() accept?

Based on t0006-date.sh and the comments in the source, I see 3 supported
formats:

1) <unix timestamp> <timezone>

2) A format like 2008-12-02 18:04:00

3) RFC 2822 (Thu, 21 Dec 2000 16:01:07 +0200)

Thanks.
