Maybe you guys are joking, but I can think of two useful applications
for this.

1.  FAQs.  There are times you want to see the whole document,
    other times you only want to see what has changed.

2.  Templates for other repeated postings.  I'd like to store
    templates for software release announcements.  I need several
    varieties of this too.  Other templates could be form letters
    for patch acknowledgement, spam complaints, etc.

In short, if you put this feature in I have an immediate use of it.
