I think it's useful (read: I've occasionally wanted it), but I think we 
should make the date option syntax be more extensible.

Ie, it would be better, I think, to use a

	--date=local
	--date=relative
	--date=UTC
	...

kind of syntax, than have each date flag be different ("--relative-date" 
vs "--local-zone"?).
