I'd expect a table like:
+------------+---------+---------------+
|    Date    |  Italy  | United States |
+------------+---------+---------------+
| 2013-08-11 |    *    |               |
| 2013-08-12 |    *    |               |
|    ...     |    *    |               |
| 2013-08-28 |    *    |               |
| 2013-08-29 |    *    |               |
| 2013-08-30 |    *    |               |
|    ...     |    *    |               |
| 2013-09-10 |    *    |               |
+------------+---------+---------------+


If the 5 edits came from an Italian IP address when they were made, those 5
edits should count for Italy for the whole 30-day period, regardless where the
IP "wanders" afterwards.

Of course, I make 5 additional edits from the very same address on 2013-09-05
(that's after the Italy->US switch), the table should become:
+------------+---------+---------------+
|    Date    |  Italy  | United States |
+------------+---------+---------------+
| 2013-08-11 |    *    |               |
| 2013-08-12 |    *    |               |
|    ...     |    *    |               |
| 2013-08-28 |    *    |               |
| 2013-08-29 |    *    |               |
| 2013-08-30 |    *    |               |
|    ...     |    *    |               |
| 2013-09-04 |    *    |               |
| 2013-09-05 |    *    |       *       |
| 2013-09-06 |    *    |       *       |
|    ...     |    *    |       *       |
| 2013-09-10 |    *    |       *       |
+------------+---------+---------------+

On 2013-09-10, I'd be considered active editor in Italy due to the first 5
editors, when the IP was associated to Italy. And additionally, I am considered
active editor for the United States due to the latter edits.

(That would match the behaviour we're seeing if I do the first 5 edits on an IP
that's always Italy, and the second 5 edits on an IP that's always United
States)
