How are you quantifying time value? I can understand using a hypothetically
inviolable unit of account like gold or CPI, but you're talking about
accounting with an explicit discounting rate attached to things.

Of course that's assuming you're trying to account for opportunity cost. If
you're "merely" trying to get a more natural way to represent
value-in-transit than the usual pairs of transactions on virtual
Payables/Receivables accounts then I wonder what benefit you're expecting
beyond what you get from links.
