Some apps have user configurable global choice to make happy / useful...
a) iso8601 (default)
b) $(date)
c) epoch
d) strftime format string, ie above: "%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%z (%s)"

Rightly leaving the box, localtime, and TZ env,
to handle the timezones and such.

As to when / if anything, 7.0 would seem best oppurtunity,
as there will be some change and other new things and
oppurtunities there anyways.
