Agreed.  If it brings a significant benefit, adding yet-another-property is
worthwhile: it only makes things worse by a (presumably smallish) constant
factor.  In considered this cost high because the feature seems rather
minor: unless you set your jit-lock-context-time to a very small value
you'll rarely if ever notice the difference (except maybe in those few rare
cases where the new feature gets things wrong ;-( ).
