Add feature to AF Table to quickly pull up all Attribute Table Lookup references to that table

As an end user, I would like to be able to change the timezone referenced in PI System Exporer from client timezone to server timezone. Something similar to the "PI Data Archive Time Zone"  setting found in PI DataLink would be helpful.
