If you want it to be optional, per post, then you will need a small plugin, and you will need to use post-meta, by creating a new meta key called “display edit” or something and setting that to a 1 or 0 and using the plugin to conditionally add the edited date-time to the post’s content.
further, you can modify the “the_date()” function in template-functions-general.php to create function called the_edit_date() or somesuch for use in the plugin.

Yes, but, then everyone gets to use a plugin to display “standard” metadata about a post.
There should be a way to display/retrieve all pieces of metadata about a post without resorting to custom code.
Maybe something like post_metadata(‘columnName’);
I have a problem about date, the date is show like this {1}June 20th, 2006
