Instead of having external revision control systems like Git or Subversion I'd like to see revision control and re-factoring built into the language itself with fine-grain mechanism for introspection and version control.
Crazy idea :-)

I could imagine using such features to back off minor changes to running code on the fly. Another domain would be air traffic control systems.
