Exactly.
The current use of timezones seems primarily designed to ease adjustment for those traveling between them. Work starts at 9 AM in region-X, you move to region-Y, adjust your time and work starts at the "same" time.
Today I think however there are a lot more cases of cross-timezone communications, and a lot of people are telecommuting to work and various events. It may be time to move on and adjust to better support distance communication and telecommuting.
