clock-setup is definitely included by default; it's just not in the
initrd. (Note that it is Priority: standard, which is one of the other
ways to get included by default.)

It could probably be brought back to 1800, but it's worth bearing in
mind that that would break preseed files that set clock-setup/utc; that
would have to be done on the kernel command line instead. This is not
necessarily a showstopper.

Could you elaborate on your use case? Does HTTP access from your
installing machines depend on a sane clock? I wouldn't ordinarily have
expected it to do so - in the absence of things like If-Modified-Since,
which surely aren't relevant here, basic HTTP shouldn't depend on time
synchronisation. However, I might be missing something.

Are there any of your changes from your proposed rdate-udeb that are
still needed in clock-setup?
