timel functionality removed

Formerly, using #timel would allow a time to be formatted according to the user's personal tz preference as defined in their MW account settings. Some time between MW 1.24 (working) and 1.27 (not working) this seems to have been changed so that #timel only takes its location from $wgLocaltimezone. I don't know which behavior was intended but it sure seems like some useful functionality was lost. ~~~~

What you describe is not documented in Help:Extension:ParserFunctions#.23timel, and I'd be surprised that it worked as you say, since that would break cache horribly (a page cached by a user with a different preference than the current user viewing the page)
