This is at least partly an issue of being able to adapt the request to
ITZInfo; it's up to the application to register an appropriate
adapter.  This is mostly because the user's current timezone can't be
sniffed from the request; at most their locale will be there.  That's
still a source of ambiguity for timezone, even if you're willing to
assume the user is near home.

It stinks that browsers don't just include the timezone in the
request, but hey, that's software for you.  :-/
