One thing I'm not sure about... can you can have timestamp in tables,
without enabling the "temporal database/interval of validity" mode on them?
It seems that in Oracle at least some special instructions have to be run:
http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/tutorials/obe/db/12c/r1/ilm/temporal/temporal.html

If this is the case, can't you have only some tables enabled that way, and
thus, require a per table support, in other
words, probably a hint? (althought... that might cause issues with
transactions, if special write semantics/syntax are needed too).

Cheers
Andrea
