Just the format_datetime function when it comes to the value which is
assigned to the time_zone attribue.  It's already an attribute of the
module.

Nope. The point is that DateTime(s) exist within time_zones in real life.
it makes sense to format an object based on the time_zone is should be apart
of.  Doing math to change the actual point in time of the object is well
outside of the scope of the request.
