That's probably the worst of all possible options. Two very common uses
of CSVlogs will be a) to load them into a PostgreSQL table and b) to
load them into a spreadsheet such as Excel. In both cases having a Unix
epoch time rather than a timestamp is likely to be very annoying.

Tom's idea of a log_timezone seems to make sense.
