Agreed. Done.

This is no trivial task. Patches welcome. ;)

There's `org-html--timestamp-format', which is used for all timestamps
in preamble, postamble and metadata. It's clearly an internal variable.
I don't know if it is used because the format is required or because it
saves copying over the same format string.
Since I don't know the intent behind this, I can't tell if it could be
made a defcustom.

Yes, by default, the export framework is not loaded at startup (as
specified in `org-export-backends'). You can use `eval-after-load' or
simply (require 'ox-html) if needed.
