Yes, right. This is currently the answer to this "please show current
hour" wishlist bug. We should *first* offer some way to set the clock
before we display the current hour.

So, indeed, what we need is someone working on a way to implement this
(probably in clock-setup, of course).

That would indeed be a very valuable stuff to add, especially for
installing brand new machines where the HW clock is usually wrongly
set when it is shipped by the manufacturer.
