Hi,
I'm glad you're working on this :)

I personally would have the first version use UTC by default.
And a second version set the default based on the region selected in
the greeter (saved in LANG in /etc/default/locale IIRC, but you may
want to check I'm not not telling crap here).
Baby steps FTW :)

The very same as the GNOME panel's default on GNOME3 "classic mode",
that is (at least in LTR languages):
$DATE, $TIME
Of course, this should be l18n'd so that translators can move stuff in
the best order, with appropriate separators for their own language.
Cheers!
