Daylight saving time isn't boolean.  Double daylight saving time is
possible.

In any case, if there is a case for a special element, in my view it
must include the ISO format date.  I would suggest there is a significant
case for making it the content rather than an attribute, and treating
localisation of the date as a styling issue.
