I'm not too familiar with this typo3 feature, but it doesn't sound like something that Oak already supports. We do have a "rebase" operation for pending changes in oak-core, which might be similar, but so far I didn't think of exposing such functionality through the Oak API. Sounds like something we should take a look at together. BR, Jukka Zitting
