Comment:

 It looks like we'll be able to use
 `Intl.DateTimeFormat().resolvedOptions().timeZone` here now.

 It's supported by recent Chrome & Safari, Firefox 52 will support it
 (Currently in the Developer channel), however IE is likely not
 implementing it. Progressive enhancement to support it when possible seems
 like a good option to me.

 I'm unsure of what UI it should have though, transparent in the
 background? option to select timezone hidden behind a `Timezone:
 Australia/Brisbane [change]` section, etc.
