Issue Summary
I am using this as a "my baby is this old" module and with babies they are measured in week(s) & day(s). I did not see this format in the readme. Is this possible?

It's not possible now, but I really want that feature now that you mention it. It shouldn't be too hard.

I do want this feature, but it's difficult to implement (I thought about submitting a patch, but it's worth discussing implementation details first).
At the moment, the accuracy variable relates to the lowest level of granularity - so if you choose days you only get days, but if you choose minutes then you'd see x days, y hours, z minutes until $event.
I think people who are after an extension to this module will all have specific needs. For example, I only care that it's weeks until a race, I don't care how many days. Some people will want years, months and days, some people might want years and weeks.
On that basis I think changing granularity from a radio button to a checkbox, and selecting what fields you want displaying, and then calculating the text based on that would be the most logical implementation.
