When you merge the wording of the GFDL requires that you preserve the history (a really really bad choice of words).

We are supposed to be writing a project that all users can write without the threat of being sued for some obscure technical flaw. If our software cannot compensate for that, that is the fault of the foundation, not of the editors. Unless we are suddenly going to proclaim that "only bureaucrats can merge!" or whatever.
