Timezones in clock

Hello everyone.
I've implemented a nice widget showing world map with timezone points on
it and integrated the widget in clock panel plugin. You can find my code
here [1].
The question is, could this feature be possibly integrated to the panel
code when its quality gets good enough for it?
There are couple of questions I want to discuss too:
1. I found at least three implemetations of timezones in xfce itself and
glib: [2], [3], [4]. And in addition to them I had to create my own
implementation in [1]. Maybe we have a reason to implement featureful
time zone support in libxfce4util?
2. Timezone selection widget can be useful in other places except clock
plugin. Should it be moved to libxfce4ui?
