Umm... the EPG already displays the current time.   Or did you mean the 
OSD menu?  No need for that, since you can already display the current 
time on the OSD by pressing 'Info' ('I' key).

For a while I've been kicking around the idea of making a UI container 
element for the current time to be displayed in the menu screens (and 
possibly other screens later).  One of these days I'll sit down and 
actually code it...
