This should have the PHP bug ID. Not sure why it says RFC?

Currently there's no built in format for outputting DateTime using RFC 3339 extended, which is used in several APIs. An output using such format would look like:
2009-09-28T09:45:31.918-03:00
While PHP does have built in support for fraction of seconds in DateTime (provided the DateTime was constructed with it) through its %u format modifier, this modifier cannot be used for RFC 3339 extended as it is a 6 digit version of the fraction. Instead, a new format modifier is needed (proposed %v, because of its proximity with %u) to output the 3-digit version of the fraction. To see the difference, for the fraction 918312 here's what would be output by both modifiers:
%u: 918312
%v: 918
A new constant should be added to DateTime (such as RFC3339_EXTENDED) that would output strings in the RFC 3339 extended format, using this new %v modifier.
