I'll defer to Alex: "We'll be publishing more details about how Google
structures conversations on top of multiple documents soon."

The protocol spec currently doesn't specify this. However, the next
revision of the spec will include support for coded error messages
including one encouraging a remote server to stop sending so much
data, or that the document they are working on is too large.

You sure can - as long as it results in well-formed XML.

It's important for you to request the entire history as each delta
will be signed by the originating party. If you optimise the process
by sending a snapshot (which you might want to do from server to
client, depending on your trust model) you lose the ability to verify
that a wavelet was actually written by its claimed author.
