Description barry 2021-09-13 20:33:54 UTC 
Thunderbird (and many other Gnome apps) query the `org.gnome.desktop.interface` dictionary to get locale info.  Latest Thunderbird installed in default Plasma results in display of 24h times rather than the system default 12h setting.

See report of issue in TBird bugzilla: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1726464

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Fresh Plasma (5.22.5)
2. Install Thunderbird from Mozilla download
3. See 24h times
4. Manipulate LC_LOCALE and system settings/ time and date settings
5. Still see 24h times

OBSERVED RESULT
org.gnome.desktop.interface clock-format is '24h'

EXPECTED RESULT
Shouldn't KDE set org.gnome.desktop.interface clock-format=12h to reflect system locale and KDE time format preferences?

Can confirm. Perhaps we should sync this in kde-gtk-config.
