A calendaring system where you can make appointments and want to be able
to set the timezone for the appointment.

Are you writing an application that changes the system time and timezone
settings? If so, you need to go beyond Qt anyway, so I don't see this as
a valid use-case.

If you're not writing the system configuration, then why do you need to
show the information?
