No, there are several quantities that we want to track.  A time stamp is just one that can't fit into 32 bits.  The others probably fit into 32 bits for the near future, but it would be wise to allow for 64-bit integers just in case.

Looking at how IntAttribute, DoubleAttribute, etc., are implemented, it seems like an easy addition, and I think it would be useful to others.

Hi Richard,

Are there specific use case you are after that a more fitted attribute would be preferable?

Please, someone, add LongAttribute to OpenEXR's list of pre-defined typed attributes.  We need 64-bit integers for some quantities like timestamps, and commercial tools like Nuke or RV don't understand our private implementation of an attribute that contains a long int.

I think this situation absolutely requires that a really futile and stupid gesture be done on somebody's part. And we're just the guys to do it.
