Location doesn't refresh when device location changes

Open the clock app
Hit location and ensure a valid location is show beneath the clock
Switch off the phone
Get on a plane to somewhere else
Switch on the phone
Go to system settings and change the timezone, observe the clock in the indicator changes correctly
Open the clock app
Note the location still says where you were before you got on the plane
Press the location to try and trigger a re-detection or pull down to refresh. Nothing changes

I'd expect it to either update automagically or at least via me stabbing it with my finger.

Hey alan, the clock app does do a location check everytime you open the clock app. So when you got off your flight and opened the clock app, you need to give it a few seconds to refresh the location. While it does that, it shows the old location. Did you wait long enough?

Although pressing the location to refresh it is a good idea (though not part of the design spec we were given).

I waited quite a long while (a few hours).

I don't want this bug report to be expire. I am setting its status to New. @popey, when you travel to fossdom, please recheck this bug to see if it is reproducible. I did take a look at the clock app code and it does indeed recheck user location everytime the clock app is opened. My intuition is that at the time this bug was reported, the location service could have been flaky and not provided the coordinates to the clock app resulting in the old location being shown.

That said, let's test it again to confirm for sure.
