Frederik, Jochen,

sorry, you both are right, I really was too fast.

But now?

Please, let's risk one small step and standardize the file timestamp (replication time), whatever the protobuf ID will be. If not 18, then 19 or something else. Protobuf format is flexible enough to be extended again at any time.

After this, we can continue caring about other file related meta data.

Furthermore, we can think about introducing a new (or extended) dense node format for history files.

Step by step...

Markus
