I'm tempted to re-open this bug for further consideration.

Since we're already using JavaScript, can't we implement some kind of sane
threshold? Here's an example entry from my English Wikipedia watchlist:

---
Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents‎‎ (57 changes | history) . .
(+28,325)‎ . . [Future Perfect at Sunrise‎; Ymblanter‎; Kudzu1‎;
EatsShootsAndLeaves‎; Black Kite‎; 50.128.155.168‎; AndyTheGrump‎; Bbb23‎;

Perhaps we could do a "roll up" here and collapse this into "[Future Perfect at
Sunrise; Ymblanter; and 15 others]" where "15 others" is a link to expand to
see the full list? I guess the "15 others" link could either just activate the
toggle arrow to show all of the recent changes or it could print the same long
list of usernames. Either approach would work for me, but perhaps this would
still be too disruptive to users' workflows? Comment 4 is discouraging, while
comment 6 was insightful and gave me hope.
