@ottobackwards Regarding your other question, we mandated that every
message capture the original message and a timestamp as required fields. If
the message doesn't have that, then it fails validation and an error is thrown
for that message.
Certainly after it's parsed, you can apply a stellar transformation and
replace the timestamp field with another one using Stellar.
There is currently a bug where we apply stellar transformations AFTER that
validation happens, so we don't have the ability to specify a timestamp via
stellar if it is not there already. If we had that fixed, then we could apply
the timestamp to the message in stellar, for sure.
