- if Electrum cannot do a graceful shutdown, the daemon lockfile won't get cleaned up
- the daemon lockfile contains the creation time of the daemon
- then, especially for an always offline phone/laptop, if the battery dies, the clock
might go back to the past
- the bug: next time Electrum starts, the program will wait until create_time + 1.0
before giving up on the daemon and creating a new one
