Testing Time Zones

This is a time zone control:
America/New_York
⁠
It is a “personal” control that each user can change. Go ahead, pick your own time zone (or add it, if you don’t see it there yet, use the “TZ Identifier” from this
wikipedia list of timezones
⁠
).
The times in the following table are converted to the time zone above using our experimental Tenseg Time pack. Feel free to add a row to the table to see how this works. Note that there can be a significant lag between choosing a new time zone above and the table updating below.

So, my question is this... If Coda can use a personal control to hold and remember a value for a logged in user, then why can’t it use the browser’s own report of a locale and time zone as a pseudo-personal control to report the current user’s apparent locale and time zone so that a pack might use it to calculate things like language and time zone?
