That is apparently the discussion that led to this being removed again.
What that doesn't take into account however is that this is not merely a
subjective change like whether or not someone likes the AM or PM showing,
or if they want some separator other than :, or if they want to show
seconds or not.
This is a standard time keeping format that is a necessity in numerous
fields in **every** country around the world, regardless of what other
standard they might use. It is a fundamentally basic option.
Treating it like some meaningless fluff tweaking option totally fails to
understand the issue at hand.
