Yes. What should be possible for "Auto" without ICU is to write platform specific functions that get OS time zone (as reported by them) like ICU does and put that directly in DPB, and add special lookup function in server that allow that non-FB (OS) time zones to be first looked-up in ICU and transformed to FB name.
