Comment (by lmarian):
Extra care should be taken with the bibrec table, since it's the only
place where the *real* insertion date and modification date are stored.
Across Invenio, many modules (bibindex, bibedit, bibrank, ..) rely on this
dates in order to run specific tasks (ex: bibindex looks at the
modification date in bibrec to determine which records need to be
indexed/reindexed).
Do you have an example where the original dates would be needed for
something different than the display? I guess for preservation reasons and
display keeping them in the MARC(bibxxx tables) would be sufficient,
right?
