Kind of.
The idea is to hide the baseline complexity from the user point of view.
The user only see releases (numbered version) and the development version where 
changes are possible.

'Save to baseline' is not clear about the baseline that will be used to save. 
In fact, development points to the latest baseline and creates new one if 
needed (ex: baseline used by a release that you need to edit).
