This is an OK feature request. But it is orthogonal to time zones. Time
zones cannot help with BC years.
To support BC, we may need to change the timestamp format to, for
example, allow negative years. In addition, we might need to update
exporters to handle such scenarios.
Let's discuss BC/AC years in this thread, if there is further interest.
