[sv-ec] timeunit Declaration Verbosity

Was the verbosity of the new timeunit and timeprecision
declarations brought up when they were first introduced?

I'm used to putting `timescale in front of every module
that I have that has a time delay inside; but if I want
to follow that same convention using the new declarations,
a significant amount of extra typing is required.

How difficult would it be (from a vendor perspective and
from a committee perspective) to allow something like
the following one line shortcut:
  timeunit time_literal [ / time_literal];
  OR
  timeunit time_literal [ , time_literal];

The first time_literal would be the time unit and the
optional second time_literal would be the time precision.
The separator could either be the / like the `timescale
directive or a comma, which ever the committee decided
would be best.

Example:
  timeunit 1ns/10ps;
  ==
  timeunit 1ns;
  timeprecision 10ps;


Thanks,
