Show/hide of document Timestamp
Since the Timestamp for a document can be generated from ObjectId (https://docs.mongodb.org/v3.0/reference/method/ObjectId.getTimestamp/), it would be nice to be able to optionally view and sort the documents by Timestamp.

Yes, but it would be nice when you hover over the _id, that it shows you the time, like the query builder does very gracefully!

If you look at the way an ObjectID is built up (https://docs.mongodb.org/manual/reference/object-id/#ObjectIDs-BSONObjectIDSpecification), the timestamp is positioned such that you can just order by _id and you will effectively achieve an order by document creation date.
