Maybe. I think I would prefer stressing the ISOness of the new dates,
but it's not a big deal. Maybe something more like:
-i Display local ISO8601 dates for timestamps.
-o Display timestamps in CVS's legacy formats & UTC.

It would default to -i in feature and -o in stable. -o & -i would be
deprecated in feature and therefore the next stable _series_ of
releases. Next feature _series_ (and therefore the following stable)
would have -o and -i options removed entirely.

Of course.
