Rather than discussing the pros and cons of UTC and leap seconds, just create your own time system.

You could call it OpenTime. OpenTime will use NTP servers where the Stratum 1 servers are synced to some time standard that doesn't care about leap seconds. That way the consumer can chose to connect his machines to UTC or OpenTime.
