This has been asked for numerous times and it has always been answered that selecting the location ("country") is precisely the key to get the timezone one wants the machine to be setup for. There is no plan to change this, indeed. If you want to get American English as keyboard layout but do *not* want US timezones, then do no pick USA as country. The one is not related to the other. The keymap question *has* an "other" option, this is the way you should go : pick the language you want, pick the country where the machine is and then pick the keymap you really want to use.
