(Because it's hard to do as a product) "CVSFolder" is quite near: I see currently two remaining issues: * Artificial ever changing "id" values in XML exports which makes automatic merging difficult * discontinuity for subfolders with their own "CVS" and restriction to "Folder" rather than arbitrary "ObjectManagers".
