Crossposting and the reading page

On my reading page I see only those who write here and crosspost to LJ. Why can't I see those who write in LJ and crosspost to DW?

The "crosspost to DW" is often done by means of importing. And importing forces the entries that are imported off the reading page, as it would be Very Impolite to barrage someone's reading page with ten years of imported entries.

Aha.

... and now I'm wondering whether the importer could be trained to distinguish "posts dated in the last 24 hours" or something ...
