The idea of an external map of the timeline is interesting. It address the need we see in our solutions. Important use cases are "get current", and threading versions "get previous". An ordered BPC of versions might work. We find this comes up very often so a recommended design on top of core mechanisms would assist adoption of LDP. Andy
