I don't think that type of thing belongs in the framework at all,
never mind as part of Zend_Date. If you start adding format strings
where do you stop?
As has been mentioned before, a unix timestamp is just about accepted
by most databases and tried and tested functions already exist for
converting it in just about every programming language I have come
across.
It has the added benefit of removing any timezone differences for you,
using string based dates does not.
