How many people would be interested in this piece of software

Time Statis wallet.

your private key is deep encrypted, and can only be decrypted at a certain date and time (it checks the atomic clock in Las Vegas)

Sounds like a great incentive to hack the computer(s) that connects to the atomic clock in Las Vegas.

So basically it's a time lock?

I think it would be useful. You could set up a trust for a kid and give it to him/her and say "You can use it when you're 18" or 21 or whatever.

You could even go further and have a wallet that will only open if there is a specific event such as a death. Maybe 3-5 people have to sign it with a digital signature. Or maybe someday the Bitcoin protocol will keep track of medical records and will just know when we die.

is there a signed datafeed from the atomic clock?

Kinda stupid what if u need them in a hurry.

I thought I read something about mastercoin planning to offer similar feature.

Very un-useful idea for obvious reasons

I disagree, it could be used as some kind of cold storage or whatever.

I probably won't use it but i think it's viable.

I like the concept!
But the source code could always be tweaked to release it when really needed...
And if it's closed-source, forget.

you don't need new software.  use nlocktime in your UTXO, it's already in the code. 
and i'm not interested

This, bitcoin already has this feature available.
