You at least take away a common excuse for lack of contributions. True whiners will just come up with new ones (e.g., "the documentation isn't available in Sanskrit yet" or "the dog ate my changes before I could type them into the computer"). ;-) But doesn't everyone now know that documentation contributions don't have to be marked up? It's certainly been said enough. Maybe that fact should be more prominent in the documentation? Then we'll just have to worry about getting people to read it ...
