I think it would be very nice if there were an option to have RouterOS sensibly manage NTP and clock setting once a default gateway is up. Once a RouterOS device has an uplink to the Internet, it should be trivial for it to set some common sense settings (if you choose to enable the optional feature for it to do so), based on public time sources and network location.
I think that RouterOS should use network location to pick a time zone, then something like time.nist.gov to set the clock time and date, then choose the most reasonable pool on pool.ntp.org (eg: 0.us.pool.ntp.org if it knows that you're in the US).
Furthermore to this new RouterOS user, it appears that the only valid NTP server entries are IP addresses. This is less than optimal and right now based on RouterOS scripts I've seen, the only way for pool-like ops is to use a big NTP script that periodically refreshes NTP settings with responses to a regional pool.ntp.org CNAME.
Anyhow, I'm new here so this is just my opinion on something that looks odd from my admittedly inexperienced perspective.
