I found sorting by recency to be helpful to see what mistakes users would make. There is not much feedback in open-source until after an api is released, at which point it is usually too late to fix problems. Seeing what users did, what frustrated them, and providing feedback helped make a better library. That's typically what internal teams get to do on a large corpus, like google3, and github is equally excellent for these insights.

An alert on recently indexed content that matches keyword subscriptions, ala google alerts, would be an excellent alternative for that use-case.

Thanks for sharing, that's good feedback.
