Comment(by beirdo):

 I will comment on these as I work with them one at a time.

 localtime.patch:
  * as provided, this does not compile as the context should be
 gGlobalContext, not gContext
  * this may be a good idea, but is not implemented in a way that works
 across the different scraper results.  It only works with the us_nws
 scraper(s) as best I can tell.  The others all present different input
 time formats, usually including dates.
  * Assuming that the user will not want the date as part of the display,
 especially when the times are over more than one day, is shortsighted.
 This is bound to cause confusion.

 Patch rejected.
