Perhaps the difference is that we're making a [fine] distinction between "useful in a truely distributed system" and "useful when WORKING in a truely distributed system". cworth's point back up a few posts is good; nearly all of my use of revnos is in direct interaction with the tool, where the revnos just came from looking at the history. And of those uses that aren't in that class, nearly all of THOSE are very transient. Non-local (in time or space) stability in either of those cases is a total non-concern.
