 TorButton / Tor Browser Bundle user with inaccurate system time (e.g.
 offset >5minutes or even hours) might be fingerprintable based on there
 system time.
 What do you think about a feature in TorBrowser that would warn an user
 with inaccurate system time and suggest NTP if the system time is off by
 more than a certain (configurable) amount of time?
