/**
 * DateTime type saving additional timezone information.
 *
 * Caution: Databases are not necessarily experts at storing timezone related
 * data of dates. First, of all the supported vendors only PostgreSQL and Oracle
 * support storing Timezone data. But those two don't save the actual timezone
 * attached to a DateTime instance (for example "Europe/Berlin" or "America/Montreal")
 * but the current offset of them related to UTC. That means depending on daylight saving times
 * or not you may get different offsets.
 *
 * This datatype makes only sense to use, if your application works with an offset, not
 * with an actual timezone that uses transitions. Otherwise your DateTime instance
 * attached with a timezone such as Europe/Berlin gets saved into the database with
 * the offset and re-created from persistence with only the offset, not the original timezone
 * attached.
