It's been considered, and rejected, many times.  Aside from the overhead
involved, there are too many different ideas of what such dates ought to
mean (e.g., what should happen during dump/restore? does a failed
transaction update last-modified? etc etc).  You can search the
project's mailing list archives if you want to read the prior discussions.
