Michael, I appreciate that you've walked us through the steps you've
followed in uncovering all these issues. Unfortunately, that makes this
bug report not useful for development -- it covers six separate issues,
which will very likely have different resolutions, and which, even if
all fixed, proba
Agreed. I tried Europe first, before I searched for Amsterdam. And when
selecting that, I saw that it had properly converted that to the
appropriate "Europe/Amsterdam".
If we're configuring time, it should IMO not ask for location, but for a
timezone, which is Europe/Amsterdam. I don't want to tel

that was fixed it would probably make the experience better (you would
still have noise for e.g "ulm" but having the result that matters first
