Auto-populate a creation-date property on new notes
J

## Request
When a note is created, Tolaria shows a creation timestamp in the app, but there is no way to get that value into a frontmatter property (e.g.
date:
) that saved views can sort/filter on.Type-note default values are copied verbatim, so putting a literal date in a Type stamps every new note with the type-note's date rather than the note's own creation time.
## Desired options
- Expand a template token in type-note frontmatter (e.g. date: "{{today}}") resolved once at new-note time.
- A setting to auto-write a configurable creation-date property key on note creation.
