I've had people ahead of me (who are dawdling along, at 15-19 mph) do it, countless times. I wave and say "Thanks!" as I pass...
"Would it kill you to ease off the "go pedal" " and travel at a more leisurely pace for a minute or two?

Traveling at 75-95% of maximum speed is hardly "dawdling", imho. More like "cruising" the lovely pathways of our community. Saves fuel, cuts down noise and pollution (if you're driving an IC).
