+Enhancement: Display timezone information in snapshots output
+
+The `snapshots` command now displays which timezone is being used to show
+timestamps. Since snapshots can be created in different timezones but are
+always displayed in the local timezone, a footer line is now shown indicating
+the timezone used for display (e.g., "Timestamps shown in CET timezone").
+This helps prevent confusion when comparing snapshots in a multi-user
+environment.
