Looks like you're trying to enforce the feature, not introduce.
It changes the user-visible behaviour, and this can be unexpected.

It is not like you see people asking question: "How do I avoid
repeating the same boring conflict?" every day on vger or irc.

That said, the templates are installed with every make install (and I
suppose with every .deb and .rpm), and template is copied in every new
repo, so people will get the rr-cache sooner or later. What's wrong
with "a bit later" than "much sooner"?
