The problem here is that many ORGs (and Regions) span multiple time zones. You also have the problem of Daylight Savings Time. So, time is usually stored as "Zulu Time" (UTC / GMT) and then an offset calculated by the local UI. (This is in fact what happens with your computer's local time!)
By having a single, consistent time definition, it means there is no confusion, or doubt about time zone. Logs line up, etc.
The problem with custom columns containing timestamps is that there is no realistic way for the default UI to perform the offset calculation. I would recommend creating a custom UI that localizes the time for you.

There is no such default at the moment unfortunately. But can see a use for it. I will add it to our wish list.
