Or to solve problems like
Gaaah! This file we've had in the repository for the last 17 months
has copyright problems and we can't distribute it!

Wouldn't it be nice to permanently include all that old Linux

In other words, general history rewriting, but fast.
(Disclaimer: I've never tried to use the history rewrite tool that
Cogito has, so I don't know its limitations, or how fast it is.)
