How to stop Google Calendar from “helpfully” extracting times from event titles?

Question

When entering an event with the string "1h" at the end (which I do often), Google Calendar "helpfully" decides that I must mean one-o-clock. Like this:

And so:

Is there any way to turn off this behavior? I can type "60m" instead, but I'd prefer to avoid that; every character counts on a netbook display!

Google's solution is to put "double quotes" around it - if you enter "Exercise 1h" it will strip the quotes but leave the 1h unmolested, and will make it an "all day" item rather than scheduling it for 1:00 PM.
