Comment:

 Any more ideas on this? My mind is fresh on the Time preflet since I've
 been working on it and I'd like to finish off some of these lingering
 bugs.

 I think Oliver is right in that if the hardware clock is set to local time
 then that is your time, and setting the time zone isn't really needed. Now
 the question is how to best handle that without confusing users. The
 preview is certainly misleading in that case so maybe it should just be
 hidden as Axel says?

 I'll take ownership nonetheless.
