I don't think we should do conversion. To me JDBC in an interface to the
database, it exposes the database functionality, behavior and semantics.
I personally expect JDBC to return what the database returns. If I want
to have it converted to something else then I have to do that with the
semantics I want.
Java 8 Date Time types allow us to do exactly this.
