I would like to ask for the following feature:

on inserts/updates I would like to have a "placeholder" like "$sysdate" as argument, telling the database engine to replace the "$sysdate-placeholder" by the current database UTC before putting it in the internal mongodb queue.

e.g.: db.coll.insert(

)

The advantage would be that one can be sure that sorting by the timestamp of the document field results in the 100% sortorder of insertion; if I insert data from different machines, I have no guarantee about the insertion sortorder in the internal queue of MongoDB for persisting ( depending on the application delay for "getting the data and pushing it to mongodb" ).

Thank you for taking this into consideration,´
