I am a little tired as it is 03:00 right now, but I just thought why we
don't store the history in different files - same filename plus
extension or similar. 

If we do this for every revision man Wikis will hit the magic max number
of files in a directory probably.

Just having an original file + one file containing the revisions
wouldn't clutter the dir...
