Although this *seems* simple, the database

This should not be an issue since this query is already made, look at
the bottom of any page on any wikimedia project, you'll see something
like " This page was last modified 00:05, 5 Feb 2005."
Oops! My bad - now I think about it, there's timestamp right there in
the 'cur' table, isn't there? And even in the new schema, you won't be
able to get the text of a page without also encountering its revision
date, won't you? So, yeah, ignore that bit of stupidity!
