Did you look at wikiblame? It does a lot more than just list a few names.
The preamble to the GFDL says as a secondary purpose, "this License
preserves for the author and publisher a way to get credit for their work,
while not being considered responsible for modifications made by others."
Just listing three names and "with numerous other contributors" doesn't
preserve for *all* authors (or any publisher) a way to get credit for their
work, and makes no effort to keep authors from being considered responsible
for modifications made by others. >>

And my idea is not to *replace* the history tab, it's to allow attribution.
The requirement of the license is satisfied by the history tab details.
Print versions don't have history tabs.
