Both the irmc and sunbird plugins currently don't use this semantics. I don't know about the evo plugin. With the sunbird plugin, this is admittedly my own fault. But actually I assume that when I now fix the sunbird plugin to correctly use timezone information (including interpreting "no timezone" as GMT), nothing will work anymore, because most plugins just seem not to do any conversion at all, and assume everything is in the local timezone.
