Since messages window isn't automatically cleared by IDE editing activity, would whoever is responsible consider adding a timestamp to the "successfully built" message so that users can see at a glance how long ago they last compiled?

Sounds like a good idea. This looks like a feature that somebody (maybe you) could implement and provide a patch. The core developers have many other priorities.
The timestamp is easy to get with "Now" + some formatting. The challenge (as always) is to find the place in code where it should be added. I will apply a valid patch if someone makes it.
