v2. Fix date-stamp regression in erc-track. Optionally reinstate old "prepended" date-stamp behavior gated by new compat var. Earlier changes for this feature introduced a regression involving date stamps and the option `erc-track-exclude-types'. Basically, date stamps aren't supposed to affect the mode line, at least so long as their inciting message's command appears in `erc-track-exclude-types'. However, this changed after c68dc7786fc * Manage some text props for ERC insertion-hook members To reproduce from -Q: 1. Connect and ensure "JOIN" appears in `erc-track-exclude-types' 2. Join #chan 3. From the server buffer, do (with-current-buffer "#chan" (setq erc-timestamp-last-inserted-left nil)) 3. Connect and join #chan from another client 4. Notice a [#c] in the mode line of the original client Thanks to Corwin for pointing this out. The way I'm proposing we tackle this is to decouple date stamps from `erc-track-exclude-types' completely. That is, have erc-track completely ignore them, so they never affect the mode line. In addition to this fix, I've also added a path for accessing the old behavior in which date stamps aren't standalone messages.
