TBH, this is the only way which makes sense. The OS keeps the Olson
database up to date and all applications rely on that. Anything else
would be madness.
Now there's still enough work for the applications to do: presentation,
parsing, disambiguation, if necessary asking the user for help. Someone
mentioned PostgreSQL -- this is a nice example of what can be done beyond
the (comparatively!) boring details of time zone management :-)
