Comment (by jnylen0):

 Replying to [comment:86 aduth]:
 > there are a few revisions that need to be made to the date formatting,
 particularly because it's hard to know (a) the true timezone offset of the
 incoming date parameter

 Tracking this enhancement at #39854.

 > and (b) whether the return value should always be in the site timezone,
 browser timezone, or even ad hoc offsets.

 Timezones haven't been satisfactorily handled in the API in general.  A
 draft's `date_gmt` can be zero/null (#38883).  There are major issues with
 timezone conversion when creating and updating objects (#39256).  Finally,
 I think we should add the timezone to all date responses in the REST API
 to provide some more clarity here (#39855).
