This is nuts. The code is already there to do server side creation timestamps. SERVER-1650 is asking for server side update timestamps. That's a much bigger feature, it seems to me that by lumping this in with a 3-year-old, bigger feature request, it pretty much guarantees it will never be done when in fact this is a minor change to the code. I've already modified my local copy of the mongod code to handle this so I know it can be done.

Hi David,
There is currently no official support for server-side timestamps. The approach you are using is a side effect of the historical internal timestamp implementation for replication, and as such may not work as expected for sharded environments or through application drivers.
I'm going to close this issue as a duplicate of SERVER-1650, which is the feature suggestion for server side timestamps. Please upvote/watch that issue for updates.
Regards,
Stephen
