You’re right… Two changes to a single file in most cases:

1.    Set the correct new timezone (e.g. MST for California).

And now your system displays wrong info 100% of the time, since as I
understand it, the zones will be changed (e.g. for me, CST will change
from UTC-0600 to UTC-0500).  How will you distinguish between "old" MST
and "new" MST when you see it listed?
