No passport stamp at FCO - is this new?

I just returned from a Thanksgiving trip to Rome and the weather was perfect! But when going through passport control, both on arrival and departure, all the agent did was glance at the photo page and hand the passport back to me. Fast and easy, but I like getting passport stamps. Last year I got stamps in and out of Milan, is Rome different? Or is this a recent change?

In case it matters, I have a US passport.

As an aside, the Italian passport control and customs was much quicker, easier and more pleasant than my "welcome home" in the US. But there is another thread for that...
