This might be worthy of note:

I have the Display Date widget displayed.  When I check the box manually, I experience the issue I mentioned earlier, la la la.

However!  [staff profile] denise said that the "check this box by default" request will not be fulfilled (perfectly fine, just wanted to check-see), so I wrote a quick Greasemonkey script to handle it.  The sole content:

document.getElementById("entrytime_auto_update").checked = "checked";

This, naturally, does not trigger whatever JS greys out the date-loaded bit, just above the "Use time when" option.  Doesn't bother me, and this is hardly an issue that would concern yall, as hello, third-party add-on.

Interestingly, though, using this script does not create the time zone difference issue; when I rely on the script to check that box for me, the time is accurate.  It's only when I manually check the box (or uncheck and check it, if the script is enabled), that the -3 hours issue appears.

Nifty!  I mean, bothersome, but nifty!
