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.
