I'm quite tired of this purism argument. You seem to invoke that
whenever somebody wants to make some form of progress.
Now, besides the whining and bickering, if you have any idea on how to
make things better, please step forward. I already spoke with the doc
folks how to document all the timezones that we now support.
Now, the reason that IDT is currently not in the list is because the old
strtotime() code already use IST (Indian Standard Time) - which is also
used for Israel Standard Time. As you can see, there is a conflict here.
As the original code already used it for Indian time, we can not change
that now.
