Title:
  [6.1]Calculating datetime from date cause timezone issues in sales
  order

Status in OpenERP Addons (modules):
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This may be similar to the hr_timesheet_sheet bug 943091, and is
  certainly related to the change in 6.1 to use UTC on all datetime
  fields in the server, as described in bug 925361. It sounds like the
  context_today() method helps when calculating date fields based on the
  current date, but how can we calculate a datetime based on a pure
  date?

  The example scenario I have run into is confirming a sales order.

  1. My OpenERP user timezone is -7:00 PDT. (Set in the OpenERP user preferences.)
  2. I create a sales order with date 2012-05-01.
  3. I confirm the sales order, and look at the picking list.

  Expected behaviour: the picking list should have order date 2012-05-01 00:00:00. Also acceptable would be to ignore the sales order's order date, and use the current datetime for the picking list's order date as it did in version 5.0.
  Actual behaviour: the picking list has order date 2012-04-30 17:00:00. This is 2012-05-01 midnight UTC adjusted for the user's time zone.

  I am running 6.1.1 on Ubuntu 10.04.
