If you want to create an event in a different time zone from your default the select picker it gives you is utterly incomprehensible.
I can't even find the time zone for New York/US eastern in it!

Typing "New York" gets zero results.
Even knowing the exact name of the timezone I want I still can't find it in that UI!
On android, "eastern" similarly results in a mess of results (but eastern is a bad name anyway...), "new york" does find it.
In the Android app typing "new y" gives
Eastern Daylight Time 18:30 GMT-4 United States, *New Y*ork
