Description

Currently we use 24 hour time and Year/Month/Day date format in frontend.

// Date and time format separators must be synced with setSDateFromOuterObj() in class.calendar.js.
define('ZBX_FULL_DATE_TIME',   'Y-m-d H:i:s'); // Time selector full date and time presentation format.
define('ZBX_DATE_TIME',          'Y-m-d H:i'); // Time selector date and time without seconds presentation format.
define('ZBX_DATE',          'Y-m-d'); // Time selector date without minutes and seconds presentation format.

Suggest allowing to configure that.

It's not related.

What this issue is, is more a feature request to separate time settings from the locale.

For example: I want the english language, the US variant. But since I live in Sweden I want to have 24h time and not the m/d/y date format. The best would be if I could choose for myself, ie YYMMDD, DD-mmm-YYYY, etc.

Yes, I know the answer is to switch to en_GB.. but I want color to be spelled color and not colour.
