 But is changing the default value appropriate? Some organizations could
 very well be relying on unlimited revisions, which has always been the
 default, and suddenly changing that seems like a bad idea.

 I would suggest that anyone concerned with the health, size, and growth of
 their WordPress database has already implemented the wp-config option to
 limit post revisions, anyway.

 Also, this could easily be implemented with an update to wp-config-
 sample.php that is used to generate wp-config files for *new* WP
 installations - thus avoiding any impact on any current installations.
