If your system clock is wrong and you try add a Google Account to Gnome 3.x, you receive the message "Error getting a Request Token: Bad Request".

Well, this don't told me the problem. I expect see something like "Your system clock time is invalid, please check your date", or "your time is wrong, check your date and try again".

Since I forgot back my system time wrong, the message do not helped me to find the problem.
