+1.

For the record, I do all my work with a stable Darcs release (currently
2.2.0).  The only testing *I* do of unreleased code is the functional
tests in tests/.

The code proposed only affects whatsnew (read-only), which I take to
mean "low risk".  It dramatically speeds up whatsnew (a minor win), and
will also exercise some of Petr's new code in the wild (a major win).

A low-risk, high-win proposal has my backing :-)
