This seems to be total overkill in most cases?
We have start and end date which is the obvious way to manage changes and is
consistent, so there is no need to be trawling through other tags to find
possible date information?
What makes more sense to me is a mechanism to create the 'history' of changes in
the same format as will be created in the change log as changes are made in the
future.
I've argued for some time that simply adding 'start_date' to much of the content
that is currently existing will add an important element of historic data to
what is already live.
