Good idea, but you need DNS to find that server, and you need
time to do DNSSEC.

If the time is set years into the future, then DNSSEC may also fail, as
the signatures would be too old.   Accepting that might be a problem.

If the time can be set like this by an operator, then there is a
problem, and an operator will have to deal with it.  It's best to stick
to what we can do automatically.
