No, it doesn't make a lot of sense.
1) All tiles are frequently requested for lowzoom generation anyway, so
I can put all missing tiles in the render queue at once with a similar
result
2) Tile serving is supposed to be quick, so it does no maintenance work.
I can just run a script that adds a render request for all missing tiles
without all that.

The less code dealing with legacy tiles is intermingled in the regular
stuff the better. This is exactly one of the reasons why I starting
hating the old PHP server.
