That's reasonable for systems where accurate timestamps are not 
important and where time_t width mismatches would just get in the way.

However, if this is the expected approach, I suggest having a standard 
and well-documented way to timeshift VMs and containers, and unless you 
want to cede the field entirely to other platforms this documentation 
effort and testing should be done now rather than in the year 2037.
