Comment (by raubvogel):

 A further issue with {{{date_i18n()}}} that is not fixed with my patch is:
 If get_option('timezone_string') is empty, {{{date_i18n()}}} ignores the
 time zone.

 I believe, it’s not easy to fix this. One cannot simply find a time zone
 string by gmt offset ({{{get_option('gmt_offset')}}}) because it seems
 that there does not exist a time zone string for each possible offset
 (have a look {{{timezone_name_from_abbr()}}} too).
