Hmmmm, not sure if there's a reliable one.
You can check if user_touched
has been updated BUT this gets updated for things like people leaving
messages on their talk page.
It gets reset for a user if other people edit that user's talk page? That
kind of seems like a bug. :-)
Probably (one of?) the reason(s) is so that pages will get the orange
"new message" notif box even if they're revisiting a page they already
saw recently which is in their browser's cache.
