I'm unable to write my own version of this function right now because the Zone type doesn't export its Zone function, but it should be as easy as:

getZoneOffset : Zone -> Int
getZoneOffset zone =
    case zone of
        Zone offset _ -> offset

It would be great if either this function was added or Zone was exposed as Zone(..)

It can be written and it has, see:
https://package.elm-lang.org/packages/justinmimbs/time-extra/latest/Time-Extra#toOffset

Note that it is not as easy as you said, because it actually depends on the time.
As noted in elm/time README:

Time Zones — A “time zone” is a bunch of data that allows you to turn POSIX time into human time. This is not just UTC-7 or UTC+3 though! Time zones are way more complicated than a simple offset!
