Ignore Time in Tasks

Description - We should have the ability to choose to ignore the time of day for tasks 

Why is this feature important to you - This causes issues on our schedule and forces us to use time of day when we have teams in different time zones. We only care that a task is due, started, or completed on a specific day the time does not matter. Every report and project view has to be adjusted in a specific way so time of day is not considered (task calculated fields)

How would you like the feature to work - There should be a setting on the group level that allows us to ignore time of day 

Current Behaviour - Workfront considers the time of day a task date is started and due which causes confusion for our team that does not use time constraints.

As much as I like the idea, I don't see how this could work. Time is essential if you work across timezones. We also have users around the globe and only thanks to timestamp users from Australia and San Francisco can easily share work while making sure deadlines are being met.
