My original question got drowned amidst all this vibrant discussions!

Do folks already use or plan to use Autokey for NTP?

In my experience most people have a hard enough time remembering to run ntp at all (and with an even remotely sane configuration - this is why a sane default using the ntp pool is helpful as a baseline). Add authentication into the mix and many operations will almost certainly just have even more mis-configuration. :-)
