hi,

1) if the documents always contain the version, there is no problem.

2) if the document do not contain the version, then the whole thing is
just screwed from the get-go. you'd have to have a distributed db of
document-hash->document-version or something.

4) i think it is not correct to say that versions are linear. they are
a tree. so the belief that if we only had the version we could tell
you if it was an edit or not doesn't help the *human* level of using
things, even if it make "math" sense.
