Use Cases
I have a timestamp in localtime. Vector assumes it is UTC, offsetting the time with 2 hours (CEST currently, Europe/Amsterdam). Adding a timezone parameter can solve this.
Attempted Solutions
Offsetting by hand, but we have summertime and wintertime...
Proposal
Implement timezone parameter

I think this would be useful to have at the function level, but just a note that it is possible to configure the timezone
on the remap
the transform. That should be used by parse_timestamp
.
I'll move this request to the VRL repository.
