Hi!

One problem I encounter frequently is that the options -time/-latestTime only let me specify either all or one time-step. This is sometimes quite inconvenient (for instance a reconstructPar of a case of which one half has already been reconstructed only gives me the possibility to reconstruct the first half of the timesteps anew or reconstruct one time-step at a time; for utilities like sample that remove old data when being called this is also quite annoying if you want to sample only two time-steps out of 100)

I thought it would be nice to have an option -times that gives the possibility to specifie multiple times:
-times 100,101.5,105
or specify a range
-times 100_110
or an open range
-times 100_
or only ever 2 seconds
-times 100_2_110
or only every 5th time-step in the range
-times 100:5:110
or a combination
-times 0,50,100_

What do you think?

Actually I did an example implementation. It's a bit clumsy because I tried not to modify the application-sources and did not want to modify kernel-classes, but it works alright and as far as I can tell it does not break compatibility with the old options. I'll append it as a patch.
