My second part (OOo tie in), would be too much in this case. Imagine a full file upload every change. Instead, having a git style history for edits, right in OOo would be awesome. Maybe a ${filename}.hist file for each file. You could exclude this from git/svn/dropbox whatever backups too, so only purposeful saves get sent upstream. The GUI interface, its nuances would be key here. Imagine being able to open the history window, scroll to, or search text of all changes, then click and be taken to the location in current document, with a placement option once there. That's next gen history, and gp is right, why isn't this a thing?
