Aggregate count that could be computed from the revision table, if I understand correctly - am I missing something?

I don't think you're missing anything. Exposing this table presumably saves computing cycles and decreases database load. I'm not sure why Marc thinks this request needs legal approval. :-)
It is a good habit for privacy-sensitive data, and better to err on the side of caution. And in this particular case we know people have been particularly sensitive lately to aggregation, even if it can already be done from publicly-available data, to the point of trying to block the whole privacy policy over it. So it really is the right thing to run it by us.
That said, no objections here- this is very basic information and I can't see any way that it would be sensitive.
Dumping in Sean's capable hands; once the actual data has been replicated I'll add a view to it.
