Two things that I've always wondered about audit trails are:
1. Sometimes they can be reported for drawings and sometimes they
can't. What drives the difference?
2. How can audit trail information be easily removed from a file? Say
before sending to a Pro/E enabled vendor who is making parts on your behalf

I don't really think that it is a true fingerprint..., but it's probably
fairly reasonable.
It only seems to record the last save by a given user-workstation
combination.
Also, if you really wanted to, you could find a part model with an audit
trail that you like, delete all the features, and then import all the
features of a different model (via udf, copy-from-diff-model, etc.). Then
rename the resulting part and you've effectively swapped out the audit
trail of one part with that of another. Of course, that model would
probably not automatically regenerate correctly in its parent assembly, but
that's another story.
