Thanks, that's a good thing. Btw., is there any KIO slave or application for 
KDE with similar functionality?

My target usecase was: OS is so mis-configured it won't even boot. I wanted to 
pass a parameter to kernel to make it discard some recent changes and go on 
with a slightly older version of files.

Another usecase was: due to bug in older kernel FS had a few recent 
checkpoints corrupted. It's either back files up and re-format the filesystem, 
or roll back a few minutes to an older, correct checkpoint.

For example, if the first thing in the file is:
   <?kzy irefvba="1.0" rapbqvat="ebg13"?>
an XML parser will recognize that the document is stored in the traditional 
ROT13 encoding.
