Hi! It's currently possible to GRANT/REVOKE permissions to system objects, but their ACLs are not backup, and then recreated with default permissions on restore.
RDB$TIME_ZONE_UTIL is simple non destructive package, but for sure administrative packages may exist in the future. Instead of mess with system permissions for everything, I think database owner should be allowed to manage who can access/execute system objects, and of course, that should be restored. I didn't played with the code yet, but I suppose we should just backup system ACLs and reset the system ones created during restore with them.
