Timezone, including DST, is just a human readable string that people are more
likely to remember and be comfortable with than the timezone offset.  The only
way to unambiguously represent a time is with UTC, or localtime +/- UTC offset.

So the remaining question is: do you want to store 3-4 letter timezone ID
(which btw are not unique, nor unambiguous) and a bit for "DST"?
