>>Sorry to insist on this once again, but if I set my preferences to show the time as "GMT -4 hours", I expect it to stay at that time, and not to arbitrarily switch between GMT-4 and GMT-3 twice a year, just because some other country, which is of no concern to me, uses daylight saving time. The current behavior is, quite simply, wrong.

If you mean to use, or not use, daylight saving time: I think yes, that would be appropriate.
I understand that different countries can start and end their DST at different dates, but that would probably complicate things too much.
