Was asked by someone integrating with an Ecto based API what formats are accepted for date times and I had a hard time tracking down docs to offer. In v2 we had https://hexdocs.pm/ecto/2.0.1/Ecto.DateTime.html#cast/1
I wonder if it would be worth wrapping these implementations in their own type modules rather than inlining it? Not clear on what the implications are there exactly, but it would make for better docs I think
