We currently use google.protobuf.Timestamp to specify a timestamp, but don't have a standardized class to represent Durations. We should decide whether we want to converge on the object-based approach, or a flattened approach.
Note that interestingly, the Protobuf Best Practices explicitly say to use Timestamp, but then lower in the document talks about making tradeoffs for performance.
