There would be a loss of data stability for users in the zones that were moved to backzone previously. I'm not terribly thrilled about that, but it seems like the least amount of damage to the least amount of people
No, quite the reverse is true. More timezones (and more people) would be affected by adopting backzone, than by what's in the development version now. For example, the population of Chongqing is about double that of Norway and Sweden combined. And backzone's Asia/Chongqing stands for a lot more than just the municipality of Chongqing. If you want to maximize data stability under the constraint of being fair, then the current development repository beats all other proposals I've seen so far.
