I can attest that this patch would be really nice functionality to
have. Grouping is an often-overlooked case where timezones matter.
When grouping by day (e.g.), the timezone determines where you "slice
up" the timeline. I've needed this often enough that I have a personal
extension for it (https://github.com/pjungwir/pjpg) but that repo is a
bit sloppy, and I can't use it on managed services like RDS.

It would be nice to support both timestamptz and timestamp, with the
output matching whatever type you give as input. I know which to use
is controversial, but plain timestamp is the default in Ruby on Rails,
so people encounter it a lot.

Yours,
Paul
