There have been times before when I was looking at ``cvs log'' output and
wanted to know PLIST a checked out PLIST fell w/in that.

I don't think it is important enough to add everywhere now, but only at
import or upgrade time.

Does anybody every argue that having $Id$ is a Bad Thing?

Actually I think we might have (or a bug where someone had an outdated
PLIST).  Don't forget those that grab a PLIST from a CDROM or the FTP
site, don't necessarily have the repository handy to check things.
