A locked up embedded system where we only have the output of console would be even more useful if we were to know when things went wrong. For this reason, we would like to ask: is it ok if we have such feature in journald.conf?

The kernel controls this behaviour with the boolean:
  /sys/module/printk/parameters/time
maybe we could read just that?
