you could do a tiny MQL query to the graph to check the timestamp of the last link written by that user.

I was thinking along those lines, but it seems to be a catch-22 situation. You need access to the 'metaweb-user' cookie to get the user name.

True. But you did send the iframe off to edit something, like a topic, so you could check if that object had changes since the time you launched the iframe. If someone else updated it it might be nice to get the latest anyway.

I agree, this is all rather hard. Does your app want to edit known properties on the topic, or just generally update it all? If the former perhaps google code needs a form element based property update library...
