Checked »man ls«, »--full-time« also gives ISO 8601 style, plus some more info 
like seemingly timezone adjustments, even for »LC_TIME=POSIX«. 
The »--time-style«-option is unfortunately not mentioned in the man pages, so 
users unfamiliar with »info« will most probably miss this. Thanks for pointig
