highlight the timestamp instead of nick

Feature description
I'd like to apply formatting to my chat's timestamp for highlights events instead of formatting the sender's nick.
This is especially useful for me since the timestamps have a fixed column on the left while I have nick + text alignment to the right (nick >| text).
We currently cannot do this and FlashCode asked me to put this idea up as a feature request.
Implemented!
Now the option weechat.look.buffer_time_format allows a new variable ${highlight} which can be used in a condition to have a specific format in case of highlight, for example:
/set weechat.look.buffer_time_format "${if:${highlight}?${color:yellow,124}%H${color:187}%M${color:181}%S:${color:252}%H${color:243}%M${color:237}%S}"
In addition, a new boolean option weechat.look.highlight_prefix (on by default) is added to turn off highlight in the prefix (nick):
/set weechat.look.highlight_prefix off
Result with these settings:
