Suggestion - Display the current time of the Nagios XI host

Sometimes when I look at a service or host object it tells me when the next check is.

Without going to the console of the XI host how can I tell what is the current time of the XI host?

My suggestion is to put the current time of the XI host somewhere in the top or bottom status bar.

See the screenshot for some example locations:

This wouldn't be terribly difficult to add. We do put a "last updated" string of text below each dashlet, but adding a server clock wouldn't be too big of a deal. I guess then the question would be, do we display the client's time, or the server's time if they're in different timezones? ; )

How about both, they are just two lines of text, they don't need to be very big?
Or perhaps a user by user option of also showing the client time, otherwise it just shows the server time.

Nagios XI Server Time: yyy
Your Client Time: xxx
