The time zone the user wants to use, and therefore sets in the OS, is not
always tied to the current location. For example, on a flight from San
Francisco to Frankfurt I care about Pacific Time and Central European Time, but
not the other time zones I fly over. There are also locations for which
Even if the OS doesn't provide notifications, the implementation could poll
in order to synthesize notifications. Given that the issue is time zone
changes, the polling interval could be rather large without complaint,
except from astronauts and east/west hyperloop travelers ;).

Object.observe change records? A synthetic change event seems perfect for this
This was brought up on specifiction:
http://discourse.specifiction.org/t/navigator-timezone/152
Does anyone know why it was left out of the first version of the Intl API? Just

around standardizing IANA time zones,
