New Comment:
DST is automatically taken into account by the date functions, that's
why you define the location and not just a particular offset.

Description:
------------
Dear Derick and Date Developers,
First of all, thank you adding timezone and dst support to PHP. I'm so
glad that I don't have to write this class myself and deal with
maintaining the backend.
I would like to request automatic dst handling for the DateTime
object.
Currently, there is no automatic way to apply a timezone dst offset to
the DateTime object. I'm in the process of writing code that iterates
through the timezone transitions array, similar to the sample code from
your 2007 talk.
I would love to refactor my code to use a call like this:
void date_timezone_set(
DateTime $object,
DateTimeZone $timezone,
[, int $apply_dst_offset]
)
Similarly, the date_create function could also take the same optional
argument.
Please let me know if this realistic.
Thank you for your time,
Dan
