I was just working on some metadata with r.support and r.timestamp, and I
thought it would be handy to have a flag in r.timestamp that queries the
current date and time, and uses it as the raster's timestamp, instead of
having to explicitly write it out each time.

Comment (by hamish):

fwiw, you can use the timestamp for whatever you like but note that the
map's creation time is a separate field.

I guess what I'm looking for then is a flag to synch the map's r.timestamp
value with the map creation time - something like 'r.timestamp -s' to set
it to the creation time automatically.
