I'm posting this bug with example code that works on Windows and could be used
as a test case for implementation.
I want to use code similar to this to support automatic adjustment of time
zones during Daylight Savings in mojoPortal CMS. I don't want to break
compatibility with Mono so I'm holding off on implementing this in mojoPortal
for now but really hoping someone could implement this soon.
I serialized all the time zones on my system into constants and want to be able
to deserialize them from the constants.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. See the attached .aspx page with inline code.
2. If you click the button on the page it will try to create the list of
TimeZoneInfo objects but will throw NotImplemented on the first call to
TimeZoneInfo.FromSerializedString
3.
Actual Results:  
throws NotImplementedException

Expected Results:  
builds a list of TimeZoneInfo objects by deserializing the string data and
binds to the dropdown list in the page.
