I cannot speak for document management systems, but for collaboration
oriented systems, the assumption that selection is done only with labels (am
I right in understanding what you are saying?) seems too heavy weight.
Just to clarify, I don't have a problem with the notion of a workspace.
However, I have a problem with selection based on labels only. Why can't a
user access and include an arbitrary revision in a workspace?
Am I missing something?
