is anybody working on (or planning to work on) a versioning

Umm...am I missing something? Is it that bad?
What I am basically aiming at is a common means to relate entries to
each other to indicate one is a version of the other or to link from
an entry to a feed that consists of versions of that entry,
If I am not completely wrong, versioning is definitely an issue if
you want to employ Atom in beyond-blogging contexts. Most people that
deal with collections of items are definitely interested in keeping
track of the former versions of the items.
What is so bad about it?
