Using Auto Time Zone to set default timezone for Date CCK fields

Issue Summary

Is there any interest / possibility for doing this?

At first I was thinking some fancy JavaScript to pre-set the Date module's time zone drop down to what is grabbed off the users computer. Now I realize a saner and simpler workflow would be this:

* Auto Time Zone is enabled (or even if its not, step 2 works the same)
* A form_alter grabs the user's timezone and sets Date CCK's timezone dropdown to that (the user can change it, but this is vastly more user-friendly than the 100 timezone list that virtually everyone must adjust radically)

Could / should such a feature be included in autotimezone?
