I just found a dirty workaround for those people who want to set UTC as their 
locations timezone.
If you edit your locations timezone to 'Africa/Abidjan' then you will in effect 
have UTC as you local timezone. (Abidjan's timezone is +0 and it does not use 
Daylight saving time which in effect means that it is in sync with universal 
time)
Drawbacks could be:
1. unknown consequences as the system now thinks you live in Africa
2. Timezone is named GMT instead of UTC (but this purely aesthetic as in 1972 
GMT was replaced by UTC even if the historical names were kept in some places)
