As requested in #1261 datetimes in the hover tool should be formatted correctly. This has annoyed me myself a fair bit. Currently the only approach to make this work is to send the formatted strings as a column in the ColumnDataSource as outlined here, in future we can hopefully use JS datetime formatting to support this. I do think this is an important feature (it's visible in a number of my demos like the StockExplorer) and should make it into 1.7.
See bokeh/bokeh#1239 for status of a more convenient/efficient mechanism for this.
