It would also be nice to somehow couple the history to the snapshot 
feature. As it is I find the snapshot feature somewhat useless, since 
you have to remember yourself what the difference between the snapshots 
are. I think that has been mentioned before on this list. I'm not sure 
what the best way to handle that would be, maybe add a button that 
replaces the current history with the snapshot's history.
