Except it doesn't work for binary systems. 32.768 Hz watches
would prefer steps of 1/1024 s. UTS was a fine idea until it
was so overly specified. Since you are already dealing with
timekeepers that do not care so much about sub-second
accuracy a smoothed leap second proposal should allow
flexibility.
