-1, since the main part of the document is the content. Ideally, adding 
comments should not even be part of the main history, but something 
displayed in a "detailed history".

I think that adding objects and annotations should be minor edits as 
well. I'm not entirely sure about attachments, but I'm inclining towards 
minor.

The problem is that the old dashboard used the wrong method for 
selecting the elements to display, but this should change with the new 
activity implementation. The fact that the new activity macro doesn't 
list comments should be fixed already by 
http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XE-749 , and I think that XE-749 is 
the right approach for the long term.
