I asked specifically because in the future I might want to build something like that for my own data store/storage engine, which however is based on semi-structured data (binary representation of XML and JSON) and which deduplicates the data naturally and stores an index into each revision... might be interesting, as I can map the fetching of the data probably much more easily to efficient storage operations as for complicated XQuery/JSONiq queries (which seems to be even more complicated regarding all the stuff which is possible in comparison with SQL).
