Ok. It seems Timezone is already in the Schema and some routines are already
in place in Date.pm. I'll try to fight my way throug (as i am no Perl Guru
at all) by looking how Autrijus had implemented the LANG preference. Should
be almost similar.

Of course for an everage user, a Timezone string like CET or such doesn't
mean anything, so we'd have to provide a nice popup with possible values
etc.
