Regarding globalization:timezoneoffsets, I just wanted to share my anecdotal evidence that Proposal 1 (`Date.withTimeZone()`) works very nicely in production -- at Bloomberg I expose this exact API (named `inTimeZone()` instead of `withTimeZone()`, though) to developers and it has worked very well for the applications that need full IANA timezone support (e.g., displaying exchange-local dates or handling recurring events in other timezones). I hope this winds up being preferred for inclusion in the spec. Thanks for all the hard work Norbert!
