C-c C-s on the headline lets you modify more quickly the
time-stamp. I may be missing the point, but that position has no
particular interest.

Agreed. But, on the other hand, it isn't consistent with any similar Org
function. Try `org-footnote-at-reference-p' just after a footnote
reference or `org-context' just after a link. In both cases, point will
be considered outside of the element.
