Hear, hear! I've sung in a specialized Renaissance choir for several years and I can testify that *not* reducing note values makes all of the difference! We need to see the original notation.

So, this all depends on your repertory and the audience for your edition. I would say that performers are better served by learning to cope than they are by having their modern expectations accomodated in older music. The difference in notation is a constant reminder that they aren't playing Brahms, and I think that's a good thing.
