I think we need to use ISO date format to store dates, otherwise we loose
the timezone info. ... but that's an other topic.

IMNSHO, never ever store date information with timezones. Always
store as UTC and then convert to localtime at presentation if
desired. The information you're trying to store is "when this
happened" and that is an absolute, not relative. Timezones are
relatives.

If you're trying to use timezone information to say "this action was
done in this locality on the globe" then what you really want is to
store locality information, as a separate piece of data.
