Too rapidly then.  Documentation is part of a product.  Let's face it,
how many newcomers would stick with it if this list suddenly
disappeared?  For that matter, how many longer term users would stick
with it?

All the more reason to tell people how to use it so they can *see* how
good it is.  I am willing to bet that a large proportion of users would
use far more features if they knew they existed and/or how to use them.
If people aren't using these wonderful features then they're a waste of
the programmers' time.
