It could be recalculated at any time. You could do this in a button's script, though it would be more complicated because there's not yet a nice python API for setting field values: http://library.gnome.org/users/glom/unstable/sec-calculated-fields.html.en#using-the-full-pygda-api We should probably just add a "today's date" button to the "..." date selection button. It probably defaults to today's date anyway.
Ugh, still a bit of an ugly hack. Can I put in a default value the PostgreSQL database to set it? Perhaps with a trigger on a modified column to update that? (Yeah, I'm a PostgreSQL guy.)
I have been working on a branch to add date/time created/modified fields to all Glom tables by default, but it became complicated so it's not finished. I will need it anyway to help with a replication feature that I need.
Ah, that'd be handy.
However, Andre, Glom shouldn't crash. Please file a bug, ideally with a .glom file attached.
