Description Dan Jacobson 2011-06-21 23:45:26 UTC 
Gentlemen, it is rather a drag to have visit each page's history page just to be
able to press the "cur" buttons, which could charitably also be made
available on the Recent Changes page.

While at the same time, Recent Changes wastes links by offering exactly
identical "hist" links, if more than one revision is present.

Indeed, why not make all but the first (topmost) into "cur" links!

(The first is already equal to "cur" so we should leave it as "hist")

And that remaining first "hist" link you could make <b> bold </b> to make everybody feel better.

Maybe there are screen scraper programs that aren't prepared for such a change.
Well tell them to use the API.
