adding clock and favorites shortcut

[gilsil]

Hi,
have been using xbmc on xbox for a few months now and really love it!
i am constantly toggling between pm3 and xtv. i like the clean look of xtv but i miss some things:
- is there a possibility to add a clock to the main menu screen?
- shortcut to favorites folder?
- clock in the playback info strip?

is there an xtv version that might have these things? else, is there a tutorial explaining how to add such items?

thanks
