In this case I do not think that an optional parameter for the timezone is/was useful. When the function is called without the timezone parameter the user (who might be unaware of the timezone issue) has to remember that the result is UTC and not his local time. Or he may enter his local date/time and get a wrong epoch value returned. This may lead to confusion which is avoided if the timezone must be specified. Which I think is the best idea. For UTC this parameter is simply zero.
