Description

Are there any plans to add version history to this app? I have searched existing issues and can't find any reference to it.

I'm thinking it would either be a Simplenote style history that could be rewound back by the user (see below) or just a simple list of "note content as of [dd/mm/yyyy HH:mm]" that the user chooses from. For the latter scenario you'd have to decide on an acceptable interval to consider the change to be "complete" so that you didn't get a huge list of changes every time the user enters a new word or sentence.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by reviewing the discussion and the referenced #547, then identify whether rewindable history or selectable snapshots is in scope; the feature is done only when the chosen history behavior and change-grouping interval are defined and implemented.
