It would be nice if there was a column in the modx_web_user_attributes table that indicated WHEN the user was created. This type of information can be useful, mainly for analytical purposes, sometimes informational or even legal, etc.
E.g. John Doe, Member since August 5, 1999.

There are a number of tables in the MODx database that I believe need to have a full set of fields with common data including users and dates for creation, update, deletion, etc. I had a vision to add this to the major objects in 0.9.7 by subclassing a modAuditable class, but several roadblocks came up during implementation that caused me to reconsider doing this amongst all the other changes we’re dealing with; I think I’d like the get this release out and then make this feature, along with converting to proper SQL datetime fields throughout the MODx database and versioning, one of the next major features we tackle.

It seems that we are headed in the right direction! Let’s be sure to keep "Trac" of your vision
Manually handling attributes of this nature isn’t too terribly complex, but the system should probably handle many of them for us.
