Description
Sometimes one wishes to show a time with seconds, and sometimes without.
The current template date/time options include (spot the odd one out):
DATETIME_FORMAT DATE_FORMAT TIME_FORMAT SHORT_DATETIME_FORMAT SHORT_DATE_FORMAT
It would be much easier to handle this scenario with adding a SHORT_TIME_FORMAT to the set of template datetime fields, so one could do:
{{ value|date:"SHORT_TIME_FORMAT" }}

TIME_FORMATdoesn't contain seconds for any builtin locale, so I'm not sure if the new setting is necessary or would be widely used. Also, creating a new setting is always controversial. Please first start a discussion on the DevelopersMailingList, where you'll reach a wider audience and see what other think, and follow the guidelines with regards to requesting features.
