Store in UTC (always). If they shift the rug underneath the object, apply the net offset to the UTC time and store the new TZ.The other would be to change the local time (in effect shifting the UTC time).
Think of it this way:

$dt->set( time_zone => 'America/Denver' ); # Boulder, CO @ 6pm
It's an operation, not just a flag.
