[uf-new] First attempt at hAudio proposal

[Ben Wiley Sittler]

actually i think that should be one of:
<abbr class="duration"
 title="PT00:03:30" (3 minutes 30 seconds, 8601 "combined" format)
 title="P3M30S" (3 minutes 30 seconds, 8601),
 title="P3.5M" (3½ minues, 8601),
 title="P210S" (210 seconds, 8601) or
 title="210" (plain 210 seconds, not 8601)
>3m 30s</abbr>

note the initial 'P'. that differentiates it from the interval syntax
in 8601, e.g. T12:00:00/T12:03:30 (an interval starting at noon and
ending 3 minutes 30 seconds later, timezone unspecified and assumed to
be either UTC/GMT or localtime, depending on the application)
