Yeah, I think Z === Zulu.  However, I don't need, want, or desire second
resolution - I need month resolution.  I could use the full form and then
discard everything after the month, but there is significant code deployed
on site which assumes a 6-digit, YYYYmm format string.  Modifying all that
is likely to be an irritating venture, and will probably occupy us beyond
the release of 2.0.12 (or .13, for that matter).
