Comment (by Rarst):

 I would prefer to drop `mysql2date()` there (and everywhere), it's very
 problematic. It expects a local time and produces a WP timestamp. Using it
 for UTC time is a case of compounding bugs ending up in "correct" result
 more by accident than design.

 Possibly replace with `date_create_from_format()` and explicit UTC time
 zone.
