Well it doesn't need to be the abbreviation in that case. We could just put the full name of the timezone, with the abbreviation in braces after it, so we would have something like "Eastern Standard Time (EST)". Would that work?

Click on a big green + sign 5. *Quickly* type the name of a time zone, e.g. "PST" (Pacific Standard Time) or "CET" (Central European Time), and press Enter. What happens: An error icon appears next to what you typed, but it's not obvious what went wrong. The error icon has a tooltip, "You need to complete this location for it to appear in the menu", but this tooltip is not clear and its existence is not obvious anyway. What should happen: Either some dialog appears where I can choose a timezone or I'm allowed to type actually something into the row.
