[pmwiki-devel] Improvements to page history management

[michael paulukonis]

I'd vote no on auto-reverting included pages.

What about pages that are included by more than one other page? Eg,
pages A and B include C. A is reverted to January 2008. B is not
reverted.


However, this could be a selection -- like in the Rename recipe, that
offers to update relative links, but only if the user checks a box.
and even there, I'd prefer it on an item-by-item basis -- 5 includes,
it shouldn't be all or none, it should be one-by-one....
