Here is my probably overly simplistic view of how a "last opened" field 
could function. 

What I was  thinking of was that "last opened" means the last time that the 
tiddler was drawn on the screen by any user of the wiki (if there were 
multiple users). Perhaps a "last drawn on the screen" timestamp would be 
more to the point. As far as my "tiddler curation" use case goes a viewing 
by anybody could be interpreted as an indicator of "recent interest". If a 
tiddler was to be scrolled into view I think that they would have had to be 
drawn on the screen first. If I had viewed a tiddler but not saved it, I 
would imagine that some sort of a timestamp field would be updated. As an 
approximate measure of reader interest I think that a single timestamp 
could be sufficient. 

Just my two cents.

Thanks
