It's a really weird user requiring such a precision. u32 allows up to
~1s, and if more is needed users can switch to ms mode, so in the worst
case the precision is 1/1000 of the desired value, more than enough.

That's not about deserve or not, we can't break ABI. Can be worked around,
e.g. by taking resv fields, but don't see a reason
