Well, generating not-so-useful output fast is, eh, not-so-useful anyway, so being able to add or not add to the set of options on a whim is not so much of value. The real value lies in deciding if it is needed (and I think --full-history is needed for gitweb) and if so coming up with a way to get the same result with cheaper operations.
