Redfish is adding a "modified" property to the LogEntry Schema.
https://redfish.dmtf.org/schemas/v1/LogEntry.v1_5_1.json

(Redfish issue 3854 for those that have access to the repo.)

Does it make more sense to have a Last Updated Time property on the 
event log entry in D-Bus? Then this could map to the Redfish "modified" 
property easier.  This property would get updated when the event log was 
resolved, unresolved, or any other action.

Thanks,
Gunnar
