I completely agree.  We know when sunrise is, but not what day it is -
easily.  Furthermore, if you're setting orders for a particular day,
everyone else has to work out/consider what day you mean, if it's the server
day and what other change might have to be made to convert that to the local
timezone of each player.

If the day was mentioned along with the existing time (I know it says the
day on the family page) then that would avoid a lot of confusion and perhaps
encourage people to be more specific in their timed actions for orders.
