Those would be quite big errors :)

I think:

sigma_h = rmsd(noise),

is sufficient, where sigma_h is the peak height uncertainty and
rmsd(noise) is the RMSD of the base plane noise.  Tom Goddard added
the RMSD calculation to Sparky (http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/home/sparky/)
- but I've still to thank him for adding that so quickly after I asked
by giving him a citation.  I don't know if other programs can
calculate this RMSD value.

This would save NMR time and it would be sufficient for a model-free
analysis if done carefully.  Remember that the RMSD value in the
random coil region is higher than the empty parts of the spectrum, so
don't forget to get some estimates by measuring in there.
