Feature summary:
Currently, Toolforge jobs doesn't allow to specify a time zone to run your jobs in, and all jobs are scheduled based on UTC times:

If I want a job to run precisely at midnight local time in a time zone with daylight saving time, I have to adapt the jobs twice a year.
Use case(s):
Some talk and discussion pages in the German Wikipedia use daily headers for structuring the topics. A bot is used to add new daily headers at midnight:

To avoid adding these headers too early or too late, I adapt the job twice a year.
