Comment (by Rarst):

 Problem is some function ''expect'' this "WordPress timestamp" as input,
 notably `date_i18n()`. It cannot be dropped without major Date/Time
 component rewrite.

 This is the main problem with current state of the component, it just
 cannot be fixed in piecemeal fashion. ''Everything'' from storage, to
 computation, to output needs be replaced together since it's all linked
 and fuses functionality and bugs together.
