I just took a look at RFC 3339, and I see what you mean, Anatoly, about the 
meaning of -00:00.  But reading further:

   "While the Internet does have a tradition of accepting reality when creating 
specifications, this should not be done at the expense of interoperability.  
Since interpretation of an unqualified local time zone will fail in 
approximately 23/24 of the globe, the interoperability problems of unqualified 
local time are deemed unacceptable for the Internet."

It seems to me that we should not try to produce an RFC 3339 compliant date 
string from a naive datetime.  It will be practical to accept that restriction 
once issue 5094 is resolved.  Given this, I'd be OK with Z being the default.

dependencies: +datetime lacks concrete tzinfo impl. for UTC
