you are getting soft in your old age, man :-)

More seriously, as soon as I sent the patch I thought of the use case
you describe. Not everyone is as patient as you are, and someone may
have things scripted. If the cvs repo is local/fast and under your
control, it doesn't make sense to be _so_ conservative.

Also -- by having the flag we get an excuse to mention it in the doco.
