Nolan Lawson commented on COUCHDB-2648:
---------------------------------------

One idea for how this could look: in the document view, there could be a 
pill/tab to switch between "JSON view" and "history view." This tree could be a 
simple SVG element showing all the leafs/non-leafs, with a different color for 
missing/non-missing. Clicking the non-missing rev would bring up the JSON for 
that rev. Conflicting leafs could have another color.

> If a feature isn't visible, then it doesn't exist, from the point of view of 
> users. I would posit that the reason people don't make much use of conflict 
> resolution is that they have no idea how rev trees work.
> Conflict resolution is the killer feature of CouchDB. We really need some way 
> to visualize that in the interface.
