atom and rss feeds from recentchanges don't respect the from parameter

Description:
The feeds seem to show the same number of diffs regardless of what date you give
it in the from parameter. It'd be nice if this worked.

Seconded. This would allow us to write better edit checking tools.

The feeds are meant for use in an end-user's feed reader, news aggregator, or sidebar/
blogroll type stuff. If you're creating edit checking tools, it's not a good base. Instead
consider designing a comprehensive real-time reporting system which can be worked into the
software.
