Please put this feature into effect immediately! If we don't like it, we can always turn it off afterwards. But we will NEVER know if thousands of Wikipedians will like it if we wait for an overwhelming clamor on this mailing list.
If it does anything to further degrade Wikipedia's performance, I'd recommend not putting it in.
Is there any desire for (or even discussion about) it among one of the smaller language communities? If so, it might be useful to try rolling it out there first and seeing what happens - something that trebles the load on, say, nl.wiki will be less horrendous to cope with than something which trebles the load on en.wiki.
