Allow user to set timezone for File manager
It would be extremely helpful to be able to set the timezone in the File manager. Currently the file manager shows the file timestamp in the timezone where the server is running. A user is not always aware of the physical location of the server to which they have logged in.
There should be a setting (or a toggle) on the file manager to allow the user to see the timezone that is being used for display. It would be even better to allow the user to set the timezone for which they wish to see the timestamps. The optimal solution would be to use javascript to identify the local timezone for the browser and automatically adjust the time stamps to local time for the user.
This is fairly trivial to implement by first casting the timestamp to UTC and then using toLocaleString() to convert the display value.
