That's an old bug - and indeed, it has been introduced to comply with the TCK. As an alternative, use s:convertDateTime which does exactly what you're proposing.

Before opening a Issue I would like to ask if someone could explain this. DateTimeConverter has a fieled called TIMEZONE_DEFAULT which is used in date conversion if no timezone is provided. It would be natural for me to initialize it with TimeZone.getDefault(); instead it is initialized with GMT. As a result many Date Objects instantiated from ORM / DB Data which has 00:00 as time are CONVERTED from the original timezone to GMT timezone. So a day before (in my CEST case ;-) ) if TIMEZONE_DEFAULT will be equal to TimeZone.getDefault() all java stuff in my application will use the same date/time conversion.
