Not sure if it would help, but MediaWiki uses two fields that might be 
of interest: rc_timestamp & rc_cur_time. I'm not sure how you'd go about 
it (if at all), but couldn't you query the timestamp(s) for any page in 
the user's watch list?

You could do it in less than half an hour. 10 minutes if you try really 
hard and know exactly where to click and which files to edit. I wouldn't 
rush it the first time though.
