A common use case for the Timer is to measure time duration between two points. Lack of operator- forced an non-intuitive two-step duration computation: get the end time, then decrement it by the start time.

Now, as demonstrated on the example of SyntaxCheckTimer and ExprEngineTimer one can compute duration directly.
