Give users a way to access time (hh:mm) in the "Entry Date" field

I find myself entering a great many books which are temporarily in boxes, and then coming back 1–30 hours later to assign key Tag & Collection metadata. In spite of my efforts to document my work during the inital "quickly get them roughly entered" process, I keep making certain errors that would be MUCH easier to resolve if I could access time information from the Entry Date field.

For my purposes, just being able to toggle a setting that would allow "Entry Date" to display either "CCYY-MM-DD hh:mm" or the default "CCYY-MM-DD" in the YourBooks and Work pages would be completely sufficient. However, I've written enough computer code and seen enough evidence of longtime programmers on LT to be sure that someone in the community would probably want electronic access, too 😀 .
