If you're having to rerun a translation multiple times or coming back to a workbench after working on something else I think it would be really handy if the translation log showed the date and time the job finished.

Add translation end date/time to the log

Does it help if you turn on "Log timestamp information"?
It's in Tools > Options > Translation > Log Settings.

That's one approach, drawback is the log isn't as nice to read when every line is prefixed with a timestamp .

I like pasting the log summary as annotation after I have finished the workspace. Then I have what is expected next time I need to edit the workbench. I currently need to add the date manually, so it would save me a step.
Here's a small workaround using a Python shutdown script. It will print the current timestamp in the log window (not in the log file) after the translation has terminated:
from datetime import datetime print datetime.now().strftime('Translation terminated on %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')David
