And in most cases, desktop clocks don't need to be set to UTC, and
many Linux users dual-boot between Linux and Windows, and may be turned
off by the UTC setting. I think the better choice would be to leave the
clock set to local, and let advanced users set it to UTC later if they
desire.
My two cents. :)
