It's perfectly legit. Reread the Times section. You can have "decimal
fractions" (which is a really screwed up term IMHO, since decimals and
fractions are different things, but whatever) to any of the three time elements
- including seconds. The number of decimal places to use "needs to be agreed to
by the communicating parties," but the notation is correct. If there's a
problem, it's the fact that fromISOExtString doesn't accept variants of
ISO-8601 that toISOExtString doesn't use (e.g. using a comma instead of a
decimal or having decimal fractions for minutes). But they both follow the
standard.

There are other places online that fractional seconds are discussed as well.
e.g. http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/iso-time.html
