Agreed. I'd like to ensure that replay can only be done by authorized
users/clients (if that's a hook, so be it). If we allow replay on
some big public servers, it'd be a bad thing for those shared
resources if everyone can do it. We can do a 'email us if you want to
be on the replay list' - this is what most RBLs do for rsync services,
etc. Yes, they can also do a checkout; but this feature seems a bit
scary without a way to curb its capability. I shudder to think what a
380000-revision replay is going to look like. -- justin
