Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 Replying to [comment:7 Rarst]:
 > Added a small `the_time_tag()` function, defaulting to post published
 time but accepting arbitrary time stamp.

 Thanks for the patch! If `the_time_tag()` is intended for posts, it seems
 weird that it doesn't accept a `$post` parameter, like `get_the_date()`,
 `get_the_time()`, etc.
 {{{
 function the_time_tag( $format = '', $timestamp = null ) {
 function get_the_date( $d = '', $post = null ) {
 function get_the_modified_date( $d = '', $post = null ) {
 function get_the_time( $d = '', $post = null ) {
 function get_the_modified_time( $d = '', $post = null ) {
 function get_post_time( $d = 'U', $gmt = false, $post = null, $translate =
 false ) {
 function get_post_modified_time( $d = 'U', $gmt = false, $post = null,
 $translate = false ) {
 }}}

 Would it make more sense to pass `$post` as a second parameter, instead of
 `$timestamp`, for consistency with the other functions?

 If it's intended as a general purpose function, then I think it should be
 just that, and something like `the_post_time_tag()` could wrap it to
 display a post time.
