I'm sorry that this information is not useful for your workflow,
but I don't want to waste your and my time, to explain you my working scenario.

But I will give two examples:
I guess form your mail that you don't use the GUI to check the logs, because if you do so how do you tell how old is a given log entry.
Or if you add a firewall rule which should only apply on workdays form 8-16 o'clock.
So when you do something like this you have to connect via SSH and check the time
and for the rest you use the GUI? IHO this is not very handy.
Or do you just trust a system that is running 24/7 and you set the clock one's and believe that the time doesn't get messed up (even with an daily NTP update). There are Country's with daylight saving period so timezone offset could also get changed (at least on your workstation).

But time and timezone (you do not always administrate a machine that is
in the local timezone, or maybe use the UTC time for your network)
should really be displayed in GUI.
The Uptime should also be displayed, maybe only on the home site.
I don't want to check the logs when was last reboot, or if I see uptime
is short I can check the logs for the reason.

I don't understand why you need that information. When I want to add a firewall rule or a VPN user, I couldn't care less for any of that information. So, perhaps you want to explain how exactly this is useful for your working scenario.
