Well, some of this is already present. If you set an association:

belongs_to :creator, :class_name => 'User', :creator => true

It will automatically associate created records to that user. You can  
also (I seem to recall) set :creator => true on a string field, which  
gets the creating user's name_attribute value.

I've not seen a lot of use cases for updated_by, but it should be  
doable in a before_save callback, I believe.
