LOCALTIME and LOCALTIMESTAMP are not available in any **released**
Firebird 3 version, so technically questions about the presence of those
functions in Firebird 3 should also go to firebird-devel.

In any case, you were asking about the behavior and implications of time
zone config in Firebird 4. That is not the same as asking about the
introduction of LOCALTIME and LOCALTIMESTAMP as aliases for CURRENT_TIME
and CURRENT_TIMESTAMP in Firebird 3.

Again, these questions should go to the firebird-devel list.
