Not hardly. FWIW, the IETF recommendation for timestamps in
any new internet standards is to use the format specified in
RFC 3339, which is based on codified experience. For time zones,
it prescribes that they be given as either a numeric offset or
`Z` a shortcut for `+00`; no provision is made for other symbolic
names as those only cause trouble. So you should have no trouble
refusing requests to support those.
