ZTimestampFormat works 'by example', substituting known keys for actual values,
possibly translated. It cannot reorder the specification. So it does not
properly handle locale.
But you could work around this limitation a bit by adjusting the format to the
locale. In the above example:
(ZTimestampFormat fromString: 'Saturday, 3. February 2001')
german;
format: Date today.
should do the trick.
