Comment (by vstars):

 Would it make sense to begin by creating a standalone plugin that would
 allow such a thing a see the demands it meet before adding the function to
 core?

 Does this type of work needs to change WordPress core's consideration of
 time?

 > As @vstars notes, this is a terrific chance to recognise that WP has
 grown beyond its initial scope, with sites allowing users across the globe
 (and across timezones) to communicate and collaborate in systems built on
 the WP Core. Making the Core work on UTC, with a default site timezone
 setting able to be overridden per-user (or per-session for non-logged in
 users where we might be able to get their timezone otherwise) would be the
 ideal outcome.
