Do you see relcreated as being something to set anew whenever the
data contents of a materialized view change due to the REFRESH
command?  I wouldn't have thought so, but I guess the problem with
that proposal is that everyone has a different idea of what the
semantics of the column would be.  Suggesting that field as the
solution here seems to reinforce that perception, anyway.

Originally, all I wanted was a column to record the creation date/time of an object. One reason it was debunked was that it would lead
to a request for an additional column to record changes in objects. I maintain that both can be done, but others disagree,

I reserve the right to fantasize.  Whether or not you
wish to share my fantasy is entirely up to you.
