Absolutely not.  I'd actually love it if I could say "not anymore"
instead, but I haven't had an opportunity to debug the revision
traversal code for quite some time so I do not even remember when
was the last time I used it, which disqualifies me from saying even
that.

I see no problem in removing it.  With more "interesting" features
relying on post-processing (like 'simplify-merges'), show_all whose
primary focus was how limit_list() behaves soft of outlived its
usefulness, I would think.
