Description

The last modification date of an item should be the last date the item informations was modified and NOT the date the last time the item was saved. This is critical especially from the end-user point of view,

Modification date for tracker item is a critical information for the end-users but unfortunately in a few places Tiki "wrongly" display "the last time the item was saved" instead. With advanced Tiki (force reserving item on rebuilt-index, tabular update) it is less and less reliable and lead to untrusted Tiki and confusion.

For exemple, if I have a tracker that updated using tabular import from the console every hour, the last modification date for the items checked will be updated every hour EVEN IF THERE IS NO changes.

See the screenshots
On a tracker list view If you look at the last modification date it is today at 10:30 for a lot of items.
If you go down to the history of the item, data was really modified on the 2021-12-17 22:30

This making the sort filtering, freshness and date management horrible from the user point of view.
