Sorry, I thought you were referring to what PostgreSQL does. Would I
be wrong in thinking that the current behavior might be surprising to
some? I mean, I'd really like a timestamptz that tracked the tz or
offset that was used to create its value…
I'm sure that's been on the ToDo list for time immemorial.
