Sometimes I find that I need to get the current date in the context of the
active time zone.
As far as I understand, the correct way to do this is
`timezone.localtime(timezone.now()).date()`.
It'd be nice if we `localtime` would default to using `timezone.now()` is
no value is given, so that I could simply do
`timezone.localtime().date()`.
This should be straightforward to implement, except for the case where
`settings.USE_TZ = False` because `timezone.now()` would then return a
naive datetime and `localtime()` would throw an error.
