That's a bit of a simplification. There's a bit more overhead than that.

Theres concern that the overhead is not worth it given how few places people
get a list of all articles. (See related comments like bug 24574 comment 3
about the user list) I also imagine we would want to see how well this entire
system works out for categories first before moving to other lists.
