I wouldn't call it _desirable_, but it is the expected behavior.
Dates are stored as strings in the database, in exactly the format you
see them, in UTC.  When they're printed, we just print them out as
strings.  This is because doing a time zone conversion is fraught with
portability issues, and so it's more trouble than anyone's wanted to
go to.

Feel free to send in patches :)
