A belated thank you to Oleg and Christopher...but it seems like neither of
these suggestions really are universal enough.
Oleg's suggestion to override set is good, but I don't want to lose the
ability to assign directly to columns.
Christopher's suggestion is also good, but I have too many columns to
override the column attributes for each of them.
I read through some of the source and found RowUpdateSignal. It seems like
the best thing will be to catch this, and then just set any column called
m_time with the current time.
As soon as I have some time I'll try it, and I'll report back. In the
meantime if anyone knows why this is the wrong track or has a suggestion,
please let me know.
Thanks
