We either should declare that absolute expiration should treated as
UTC, or get rid of it and use relative expirations.
Unix time has no timezone. Timezones are just used when displaying
or parsing times.
Does anyone expire based on absolute time? In those cases, is it
difficult to compute the duration until that time occurs? If it is,
can it be the job of the clients to provide this shortcut?
