Comment (by dd32):

 > While it'd be "nice" and "cleaner" to have a filter for this in core it
 seems low priority with a good working plugin addressing it.

 The above plugin is mine, and a filter is dearly needed for this.. While I
 managed to get it working reasonably well, it wasn't exactly the nicest
 thing to do.
 Remember that with constants, only one place can define them (a single
 plugin, or the wp-config file, etc) leading to many compatibility
 problems.

 A number of plugins over time have also been known to define the number of
 revisions to store which caused havok for some users, bad plugins, which
 were fixed, but still shows problems exist.
