gollark: Well, yes, it's retrievable, but that would be slower thus apiobad.
gollark: For a hypothetical "index" which "lists" all "pages".
gollark: ```sqlCREATE TABLE pages ( title TEXT NOT NULL UNIQUE, updated INTEGER NOT NULL, created INTEGER NOT NULL);CREATE TABLE revisions ( page TEXT NOT NULL REFERENCES pages(title), timestamp INTEGER NOT NULL, rev_type INTEGER NOT NULL, meta BLOB NOT NULL, full_data BLOB);```I am rethingying minoteaur's schema to look like this maybe. Should revisions have UUIDs too?
