This says that a space between date and time is acceptable, although
not considered a single field.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601#Combined_date_and_time_representations
"""
Unlike the previous examples, "2007-04-05 14:30" is considered two
separate, but acceptable, representations—one for date and the other
for time. It is then left to the reader to interpret the two separate
representations as meaning a single time point based on the context.
