NTP can already report jitter and offset values. Maybe what we need is a
way to have those values *reduce* the precision of the kernel-provided nsec timestamps, so that you get timestamps as accurate as possible for your timebase, but no more accurate? (Of course, if the jitter changes a lot, interesting things may happen, but that's quite rare.)
