Feature suggested - send Time Stamp value as well

Hi,
while sampling values from sensors or just sending an event of GPIO status change to an MQTT Topic would be nice to have a "compain" topic with the TimeStamp of the last event.
Eventually even sending those messages with "retain" flag.
In this way from an app i could see the last values of a sample and WHEN it was sampled! Just to understand if this is an OLD sample or if it is recent...
