Well, I think a human would know from context that it was an
abbreviation for 16:03 on 9th Dec 2007, and would know what time zone
we were talking about, which is all the info in that ISO date.

I do agree that ISO dates are often completely unreadable and we
should continue to explore alternatives, I've not seen on that makes
more sense than [EMAIL PROTECTED] yet as I am somewhat against the idea of
hiding it in title attributes on arbitrary elements.
