While I was aware of this way of updating the Last Edited date, I've
been disappointed at what I believe is a difference between TMG 4d and
v.5 where a person's Last Edited date is no longer updated when they are
added as a witness to an event or when an event to which they are a
witness is altered.

Does anyone know if my perception of this is correct, and if so, why the
change?

Cheers,
