Clock Widget

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi, I like to have visibility into the current time of various cities all over 
the world - so basically I would like openhab to function as a world clock. 
Here is what I did so far:

DateTime        dateLocal       "Local [%1$td.%1$tm.%1$tY %1$tT]"               
                        { ntp="Europe/Berlin:de_DE" }
DateTime        dateEastCoast   "New York [%1$td.%1$tm.%1$tY %1$tT]"            
                        { ntp="America/New_York:de_DE" }
DateTime        dateWestCoast   "Los Angeles [%1$td.%1$tm.%1$tY %1$tT]"         
                        { ntp="America/Los_Angeles:de_DE" }
DateTime        dateSingapur    "Singapore [%1$td.%1$tm.%1$tY %1$tT]"           
                        { ntp="Asia/Singapore:de_DE" }

Text item=dateLocal icon="clock-on"
Text item=dateEastCoast icon="clock-on"
Text item=dateWestCoast icon="clock-on"
Text item=dateSingapur icon="clock-on"

Now I can set how often the clocks update using openhab.cfg

ntp:refresh=10

I would like to see a clock widget that picks up the current time from NTP an 
then runs independently updating the time every second without having to query 
NTP every time. Having that clock in analog an digital themes would be great, 
too!

cheers
Mathias

It would be nice to get the time from the operating system, 'cause often the 
operating system itself is ntp-synchronized, so it's not necessary to 
synchronize twice.
