I am not sure the oldest tileset algo is especially useful, we would rerender loads of Antartica all the time which never changes, I suspect. Most of the world (fortunately) is really uninteresting and should hardly ever be rerendered.
Anyway, I have nothing against keeping clients busy. My bigger problem is that there's no easy way of finding the age of all tileset files. I am hesitant to add yet another database table. Requesting that 1m tiles apparently killed little brittle MySQL already.
