Is it reasonable to hack the PW to be a long life clock?

My secondary reason to obtain a jail broken PW is to use it as a hacked clock - to permanently display the time (as a screensaver?) updating 1/minute.
Before I go 'all in', wondering if this is a reasonable hack for someone with average hacking skills!?
I presume the basic steps would be:

1) Jailbreak
2) Install the addins
3) Code the clock app in Python, generating updated png files once/minute
4) Add the script to cron

Thanks for the advice!
