A couple of things I'd like people to note as central to the design

 - it has to be simple and natural to prune old versions and documents
 - ... and to display the disk usage of docs and their versions!
 - it has to interop well with the FS underneath
 - it has to interop with the XS-based backups...

Efficiency in terms of storage and performance is incredibly impotrant
when it comes to document storage. Several cycles of design &
implementation have ignored this in our past... and we've paid for
it... lots.

And... we're moving away from generic-ising Sugar's main contact
points. Whatever happened with the idea of riding on gnome's overahaul
of the file picker / manager?

cheers,
