We would like VisualCron to be able to use an alternate time source or a fixed time zone for jobs rather than using the local server time exclusively. Our jobs interact with many external sources that use GMT time for their jobs. Having VC on our local server tied to local time and the changing of standard to daylight savings time, makes it difficult for us to kickoff our jobs consistently throughout the year at the same time. It would be nice to be able to set VC to use GMT time and therefore not have to deal with local time changes twice during the year and possible errors in scheduling.

Along the same lines of thought, it might also be nice on a large network to be able to set VC to use an external time server to be able to calibrate jobs across multiple instances of VC to a common time keeper or server.
