any reason you can't just run your app in GMT via the user.timezone property?

If the database is opened using another system time zone, the date and time will be the same. That means if you store the value '2000-01-01 12:00:00' in one time zone, then close the database and open the database again in a different time zone, you will also get '2000-01-01 12:00:00'. Please note that changing the time zone after the H2 driver is loaded is not supported. "

I was thinking it might be because the formatter that ERH2PlugIn.formatValueForAttribute() calls is not storing the timezone offset, but when debugging, I don't even reach that formatter, so the problem doesn't seem to be there.
