You're dead wrong there. Document version control with explicit checkpoints has been a major missing feature since Google introduced the change history. Its absence meant that you had a platform which combined the speed, stability, and interactivity of a heavy web-based app with the retro delight of managing multiple copies of the same file with names like "Version 1.3-final-beforeSandrasTweaks-APPROVED-legaltosignoff", only stored in the cloud with no central place to keep track of them all.
This feature, if it's what I think it is, has been a long time coming and very welcome for it.
