If you supply an escape, Apache will override that default epoch. So I
could see setting the default to "server_log" or "postgresql_log" or
whatever, and making the default (with no escapes supplied) be the epoch.
That would be easy tweak, and be much closer to Apache style.

Apache 1.3.31:
if (use_strftime) {
struct tm *tm_now;
tm_now = gmtime(&tLogStart);
strftime(buf2, sizeof(buf2), szLogRoot, tm_now);
}
else {
sprintf(buf2, "%s.%010d", szLogRoot, (int) tLogStart);
}
