I believe his concern – Stuart will confirm – is that in a global market for content it is frequently vital to know the time-zone in which a date-time restriction applies, and this can only be expressed by including the time-zone offset value.

I agree - but does not XML Schema dateTime support timezones?

See section "3.2.7.3 Timezones" of the XML Datatypes spec [1]
