Could we add some way for this query to get the combined edits of two or more users on the same page? I know you can query several pages at once but I'd want something like &users=Tom|Dick|Harry&titles=The_weather_in_London if possible.
My apologies for the late reply.
It's possible, but wouldn't be as useful as you might think, since it'll order by username first, then timestamp so you'll get all of Dick's edits first, then Harry's, then Tom's, and each of those groups would be sorted by timestamp. This means such a query would hardly be any better than just querying each of the users separately, and in some cases it might even be worse (such as when Dick has more than 500 edits, in which case you won't get any of Harry's or Tom's without using query-continue and just waste bandwidth if all you wanted was 50 edits). Since the benefits are few and implementing this would require a fair bit of restructuring of the already pretty complex prop=revisions module, I don't think it's worth the effort.
