Sorry, my bad, didn't know it needed a schema change.

Its impact is limited now because of the tagging system -- revisions that trip
abuse filters that you want to monitor can be tagged, and then you can patrol
by tag rather than by filter. Tags weren't enabled yet when I originally filed
this bug, so back then it seemed a bigger problem. The other reason its impact
is limited is most people don't seem to be aware of how the whole
filtering/tagging system works and its potential for recent changes patrolling.
That's not a problem with the software itself, of course.

I'm not insisting you fix it, just wondering what the intention was so I know
what to expect (I'm torn between trying to track abuse filter hits directly or
just tracking tagged changes; the latter is fine as-is, the former would need
this to work "properly" and would have the advantage of being able to track
anything without having to keep requesting new tags to be added, and also of
tracking instances where a warning was shown but no action done).
