transaction timestamp in bitcoin-qt

[P4man]

Why does bitcoin-qt show transaction time stamps as the time it received/processed the block rather than the time the transaction happened?

Now if you turn your PC off for the weekend, and back on monday, all transaction that occurred over the weekend will seem to have occured on monday morning around 8 am :S I would so much rather see when the transaction actually took place, even if its just an estimate.

I also find this very irritating.

Has this issue been discussed or is there a bug report already?

I don't remember older version of the client doing this but I may be wrong. I found it pretty annoying when my hard drive died and I restored a backup. All the transactions I made since the backup showed up as the day I downloaded the blockchain again. Just glancing at it makes it look like one very profitable day. :-P
