Overall, I like this approach better than explicit classes. Two items I
would like to see:
1. Allow tests to run in parallel. This will probably requires some sort
of synchronization to allow only one tests at a time to change default TimeZone
or Locale.
2. Apply the rule to individual test methods instead of to all methods in a
test class. Perhaps this could be done by creating annotation(s) which enable
the Rule. I am thinking of something like SwitchDefaults(locale="locale_name",
timezone="timezone_name").
> Create a base test for the time package, which sets and resets default
> Locales and TimeZones

> We have a lot of problems due to Locale dependent tests. I propose to create
> a base test class with a setup and teardown method which set and reset
> default locale and time zone. All other tests should inherit from this base
> test class so that they don't have to fiddle around with default settings.
