preferences and re-inventing the wheel

[Luis]

Hiya,

On point '4': have you seen http://www.runrev.com/products/related- 
software/zygodact

Should cater for part of that at least. Nice bonus is the cgi script.

For versioning I'd go for Magic carpet if you don't want to roll your  
own: http://www.altuit.com/webs/altuit2/MagicCarpetCover/default.htm

Cheers,

Luis.
