Rui Li commented on HIVE-14412:
-------------------------------

Maybe I can use a nanos larger than 999999999 to indicate the extra field. Not 
sure if this works with the ORC file format. Will have a try.

> Add a timezone-aware timestamp

> Java's Timestamp stores the time elapsed since the epoch. While it's by 
> itself unambiguous, ambiguity comes when we parse a string into timestamp, or 
> convert a timestamp to string, causing problems like HIVE-14305.
> To solve the issue, I think we should make timestamp aware of timezone.
