Re: question about automagic 'modified' field

i would use a behavior "ModifyUpdatable" or something
that checks if there are any "parent relations" and if so triggers the
update of the timestamps

for performance issues you could manually define the parent relations
to be modified
so it can update right away instead of checking on existing "modified"
fields in the table

i guess lots of cakers could find this piece of snippet very useful -
including me :)
