You mean this?

When downloading data the client will receive a version number. This 
number must be stored and provided when updating (or deleting); if it 
does not match the server's current verision number at the time the 
update/delete is made, the operation will fail.


I don't really see how changesets are going to address all changes at 
the same time + returning version numbers. Since it is not an atomic 
operation, how can one reliably getting these id's before a /close ?


Anyway it gets of the original point, which I would like to have solved 
first.
