I don't buy this. How do you propose a user should set a different time
zone from the system time zone? E.g., because a user in Australia is
ssh'ing into a machine that is in the UK, with the system time zone set
to “Europe/London”, but still wants to see times and dates according to
their local timezone.

The “timedatectl” command (or for that matter the “tzconfig” command)
doesn't seem to support that idea.
