I'd welcome if this mimimum set of ISO date handling woudl be included,
because I feel they address the needs more versatily than the current
%ci, which is too long with down to TZ.

I find it that the YYY-MM-DD HH:MM meets the needs 99% of the case, like
in ls(1) listing when the LC_* is properly configured.

This would be good. In the mean time, when we wait for this feature to
surface, the current patch would address immediate needs.
