There are still a number of logical holes in the code. ModDateLastSeen is
called in a number of places without a flag being passed to prevent the
itemlost update.

I must admit, I find it confusing to be able to update the last seen timestamp
when the item is still 'lost'.. it feels like a logical flaw.  Should we not
alert the user performing the action that the item was lost and get feedback on
what to do?
