It would be very useful to have a stopwatch timer question type available.  If one is in the field collecting data of a tablet or phone it is very awkward to have to use a separate device to to collect time.  We currently work around this by having two time question and taking the difference, but in practice this seems to be a clunky workaround.  It would be uch cleaner to have a dedicated timer question type.

I agree this would be nice - we have a survey where observations are recorded across five minutes. The observer indicates during which minute interval the observation was made (1st minute, 2nd minute, etc). Having a time to calculate that would be good.
