No, that ticket is for a general review to make sure (eg) dates render 
correctly according to a user's current timezone.

Well, it is documented at

 http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/installation.html

though I don't think we should expect people to have to read cake 
documentation.

I don't have an objection to uncommenting this, but it would be good to 
understand

(1) Why you need to (I have it commented out and things are working 
fine, and I don't have a global php setting)

(2) Why you need to now (did you have in uncommented previously?)
