I think it is a very good idea.

I don't personally use either RSS feeds, or Atom feeds from gitweb,
therefore I don't feel like I am able to ack this changes... but I do
like them.

A question: how should URL, which is _contents_ of a tag (instead of
as _attribute_ value), quoted (escaped)? I don't think it is specified
in RSS. I guess that using esc_url() is a safe solution.
