You may set absolute time on the device, and receive downstream tags
with absolute timestamps. However, you cannot *yet* tell the block to
stream at a specific time. I believe this to be a trivial change. One
may imagine a call that sets the time into the source block, and when
the source block's start() routine is called, it uses the time
programmed by the user.
