Shouldn't this variable be buffer local?

Often times I want to look at a certain directory sorted by time i.e.
"-alt" instead of the default "-al" setting of this variable.  But this
doesn't mean I want to look at all directories this way.

Many variables state that they automatically become bufer local when set in
any way.  How can I make dired-listing-switches be one of them.
