Description Bastien Nocera 2017-07-27 10:35:01 UTC
It would be nice if toggling the "Automatic Timezone" in the Date & Time settings would show a spinner while it's checking for the timezone.

This would likely need the Settings panel to not change the GSettings itself, but rather call out to a D-Bus method in the datetime plugin to ask for that. The D-Bus service would then change a "Searching" property to true/false while the search is on-going.

Test suite would likely require geoclue support in dbusmock, if it doesn't have that already.
