Hi, I need two columns in tables of MySQL/Postgres:

- "created" (timestamp/datetime)
- "last_modified" (timestamp/datetime)

I want to avoid doing it with Ruby ("table[:created] = Time.now" and so) as I 
expect it's much faster if we let this job for the database itself.

How could I tell Sequel to create a column datetime column with default value 
"NOW()"? Of course the following doesn't work:

  column        :modified, DateTime, :default => "NOW()"

Also I need it working for MySQL and Postgres.

Obviously "created" must be set to NOW() by the database when creating the 
row, and "last_modified" must be set to NOW() by the database when updating 
it.

Is it possible with Sequel::Schema::Generator ?

Thanks a lot.
