FYI, I just now came across this library on Emacs Wiki:
https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/strptime.el
It seems to have something similar to the requested enhancement.
It is not something that I can use, and it is no replacement
for the enhancement, but it might help. The copyright for it
is by A. Aichner of XEmacs.
The library description is this:
partial implementation of POSIX date and time parsing
Implemented (partially, specifically without locale support) according to
http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/strptime.html
The main function (command) it provides is this:
(defun strptime (time format &optional extended)
"Return a nine element list of TIME, parsed according to FORMAT..."
