Yep. There's really no way to determine if a revision changed. Atleast
we can be happy that it's just the revprops that change- replace refs
are a great solution when we can tell if something changed. Frankly, I
haven't thought about how to solve this yet -- I'll comment after
looking at the later emails in the thread.
