[Bf-committers] Timestamp

[Campbell Barton]

This is a good example of where metadata could be usefull-
Would need an "OnDataChange" scriptlink or somthing? I made a patch for 
enter and exit edit mode a while back, for most cases it could be 
assumed that the last chanjec time was when exiting edit mode (I know it 
dosent work for joining and a few other cases tho)
