While there is unused bits in the record header, I don't think there are
enough bits to hold a time stamp.
Do you think fp6.0 should use different file formats would be the
primary question to solve.
And even then to what resolution? MySQL holds resolution to 1 second,
while postgreSQL holds it to a thousanth, MS-SQL is 1/300th of a second,
and Oracle is configurable AFAICT.
I've been working with systems lately that break in MySQL because of one
second resolution...
