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.
