That would be nice, indeed!
Use cases that I can see:
- A server process that talks to several users in different locales and
time zones.
(We have locale_t for several years already, but not yet timezone_t.)
- A multithreaded mail agent that wants to sort mails by date, where
each mail lists its own date in a format that includes the time zone.
