Clock Skew

Any thought about implementing the measuring of clock skew in Nmap?
Basically you can detect if two hosts are the same and alot of
interesting things from this value. For example, are these two hosts
just the same firewall spoofing me or not, does this IP have several
boxes behind it, how many computers are behind a NAT etc. Could possibly
be used for OS-detection too. Very interesting stuff if you ask me.
