We'd like to be able to have more fine control of the TIMERANGE macro, so you can say "%{TIMERANGE,FORMAT=$Y$m$d}" or "%{TIMERANGE,FORMAT=$o}" for the orbit number. Presently when you do a pngwalk with orbits, either orbit:foo:2 is displayed, which assumes that "orbit" and "foo" are understood to provide context for 2. It would be better to allow the context to be provided externally (figure caption) anyway.

    I was digging around and code and reverse engineering this feature, until I finally found this ticket. We really need documentation for this.
