Actually, it does a bit compare and can merge the edited sections together,
letting the user confirm the changes before saving them.
I'm not saying this is a feature that should be used widely, but there have
been a number of times a developer has left work without checking a document
back in, where I just needed to make a quick change to the document.
(Usually a spelling error or something like that.) Unfortunately, with them
having the document checked out, I can't make the change. This feature would
allow me to make the change, then when they go to check in the document, it
will warn them that a change has occurred and show them what the document
looks like with the merged changes. They can then either except the changes
or save only their version. (At least this is the way I gather it works from
the docs-I've yet to try it.)

the same document) which I'm dying to play around with. Unfortunately, I
