Well, there's two aspects to this.  The first one is the quesiton of
*why* the last modified header is currently that of the outermost
page template.  That's a zope@zope.org question.  The second is
the question of whether or not that is the "right" behavior, and what
it would take to make Zope smarter such that the last modified header
would actually be accurate.  The answer to that may be, "there is no
implementable algorithm that will work".  That question still probably
doesn't belong on zope-dev, though, but instead on zope3-dev <grin>.
