Is your Feature Request related to a Problem or Annoyance?

Hi, and thanks for the amazing plugin!

Currently Meta Bind provides:

  • date — date only
  • dateTime — date + time

However, there is no standalone time input type for cases where users only need to store or edit time (HH:MM) without any date.

Why this is needed

Many workflows require only a time field, such as:

  • Daily schedules
  • Habit tracking
  • Timers / reminders
  • Logging start/end times
  • Metadata where the date is irrelevant or already managed elsewhere

Using dateTime for these cases introduces unnecessary data (the date part), and using a plain text field loses the convenience of a proper time picker and validation.

Describe the Feature you'd like

Add a new input type:

INPUT[time:fieldName]
Image

This should:

  • Provide a native time picker (or formatted input)
  • Store only a time value (e.g., "14:30")
  • Validate HH:MM format automatically
  • Work similarly to date and dateTime, but without any date component
