Actually it's not limited to the usage of INTERVAL SECOND, I am writing

INTERVAL SECOND TO FRACTION(5)

Well, it's not storage it's formatting. Doesn't make any difference to
your problem though.

If you know a little "C" you could build some custom types to match your
needs. It should just be a matter of applying the correct formatting as
a wrapper around the existing "interval" type.
