I asked Dale if it worked fine for him.  Its not clear from his email if he
tried it or if he was aware of it.

Switching the logic from the clients accounting to server drift (which in
theory is only accounting for the drift of ~ two machines) to the server
attempting to account for the potential drift of all clients doesn't really
solve the issue.  It just means you make the validity range valid before it
was issued (which I'm pretty sure you probably shouldn't do) to potentially
way after its intended lifetime in order to account for the multitude of
clients.

Ultimately its the client that is concerned with the validity of the
assertion.  Any client configuration to loosen restrictions around
validation only affects the trust between the client and the server, whereas
a change to the server configuration impacts all clients, whether they
wanted it or not.
