It's always better to show a timezone in table header, i think, no matter
what the timezone it really uses.
But changing to show GMT/UTC always? I have to say it's a bold move even
there's a case that many drivers run at different timezones. If we're sure to
do this, we need to make it known to users in form of like writing it into
release notes, as UI is the most frequently-used interface.
Current fix makes some sense, but easily makes people confused: when they
check applications list, the time says "The time zone is GMT, and the time is
2016-01-01 15:00", but when they check details of applications they get "The
Job 1 of this application starts at 2016-01-01 14:00 or 2016-01-01 12:30". This
kind of inconsistance is unacceptable from my point.
