I think "--date=iso --local-dates-too" is still not orthogonal enough, let
alone "local_original" which invites "Why is this combination supported
and not this, that, and 47 others?" questions.

I however do not think it is so bad an idea to allow something like:

	git log --date='custom:%Y-%m-%d ...'
	git log --date=custom	;# looks at "date.custom" config

Thanks, that (and the %{local} bit) is a much better suggestion than
mine, I think.
