#45 closes this

from cooked-validators.

For documentation's sake:

As of merging #45, time management closely follows that of plutus-contract. The reason being that we want to provide an instance of MonadMockChain (Contract w s e) and its impossible to retrieve the SlotConfig from within the contract monad.

Ok... its not impossible... we can observe the slot config by waitNSlots 1, then recording the current time t0, then repeating this and getting t1. Now we could do some linear extrapolation and find out SlotConfig. I'm not sure its worthwhile to do all of this.
