Maybe we should consider doing this.

Why we wouldn't synchronize hardware clock immediately?
When I set time, it is correct time. It should be reflected with hardware clock also. I had problems with clock being late 3 minutes, I first noticed this after crash. This can also happen to other people, having crash, need to forcefully reset device or something similar.
In such case clock wouldn't be synchronized and therefore not correct.
From my point of view, I want clock as soon as possible to run correctly.
