It would be better to use wpEdittime, but you should still fake it. Submitting an edit with an outdated wpEdittime *usually* results in an edit conflict, but MediaWiki will attempt to merge your edit into the conflicting revision(s) first. You'll only get an edit conflict when the merge fails.
So where is the problem? I think it 'd be better to manually merge only if necessary.
No problem, just pointing out that wpEdittime's semantics are slightly different from what River said.
