People occasionally seem to ask for keeping time stamps on schema objects
(tables, functions, etc.) about when they were created and last altered
(in their structure, not the data in the tables). I think that this would
be a relatively useful and painless feature. What do others think?

Hi Peter,

I don't have a specific need at the moment, but on previous pgAdmin work
could have really used a version number or timestamp.

+1 here.

It has actually occurred to me before that that would be a vaguely
useful feature.
