In your requirement, you seem to have a tough exception to an easy rule, your rule basically being that you want the timestamp to default to date/time fields on opening the calendar widget, exception being you do not want it for each and every date/time field.
It may be possible to modify the widget to display the current CLIENT timestamp on a null date field on opening the calendar widget, but it would be hard to have it NOT to set that value for just certain fields. Might be almost impossible to define that exception for some fields. Setting the SERVER timestamp from a client action would be the next difficult task although this is at least not an impossible one. One way to fetch the current server time, if you do not mind a intermediate processing form, would be to create an entry in that intermediate form, and fetch the create or modify time of that ticket, which would give you the SERVER time.

Does anyone know if it's possible to make this default to TIMESTAMP instead of DATE, at a server level? I know that it is possible, for each field, to set a default value of TIMESTAMP, which will result in the calendar showing it correctly, but obviously this doesn't quite solve our problem, as it means that we would have to change each individual field in our system. Besides which, obviously not every date field in our application should have a default value. Our application is web-based, so perhaps there is even a CSS setting...? Any ideas..?
