<pre>Everyone talking about a maybe theoretically possible time zone support, please
be aware that in spreadsheet context a date+time value is one single numeric
floating point value in days since null date (with 0.5 == 12h ...), it does not
hold any time zone information whatsoever. Please see <a href="show_bug.cgi?id=121851#c2">comment 2</a>. This is
completely different from what *could* be possible in the file format where an
ISO 8601 date+time string is stored (at least for ODF and optionally for OOXML,
the old binary .xls file format doesn't allow any such thing).</pre>
