tzdist specified that the 'time zone' format would be used

And if you want another one how about the inconsistent use in class
names:<br>
<br>
TimeZone for java - implies space before Z<br>
timezone in python - wouldn't it be time_zone if a space was
implied?<br>
<br>
That aside - most documentation and names seem to assume 2 words
rather than 1. <br>
