[Users] Time Zone information

Hi, does anyone know what is the Time Zone in General tab of each VM supposed to show? Is it the TZ info from the guest OS? It doesn't seem to reflect it. Thanks, michal

and it is for the initial run only - changing it in the guest isn't reflected back

It seems it mostly displays relevant things configured for the VM. What's the point displaying TZ which may no longer be relevant and is never updated since the initial run?

could be, unless it affects the time we pass to the guest during launch (engine keeps time clock differences iirc)
