Rails core - Aug 2013 - Feature Request: Allow :time_zone option when using Rails form date/time helpers

I have an issue where I need to specify a datetime_select offset by a 
specific time zone that is different from the application''s default
time
zone. It would be really helpful if I could just specify the time zone that 
is used as one of the multiparameter attributes, so that it would be used 
when converting the params into a DateTime object. Example usage would be 
something like this:

# config/application.rb
config.time_zone = ''UTC''

# _form.html.erb
datetime_select("article", "publish_at", time_zone:
"Pacific Time (US &
Canada)")
# and/or...
datetime_select("article", "publish_at", include_time_zone:
true)

The second option would display a time_zone_select, allowing the user to 
choose which time zone the time should be saved in.

I''m not sure how to go about adding this feature, but I would be happy
to
help if you could point me in the right direction.
