Since the question has been raised, what I'd really like is

returns a browse view rather than an edit preview view, with an
option of links to older and newer versions of the page.
Clicking on 'Older' takes you to a browse of the previous version
and clicking on 'Newer' takes you to the next version. I imagine
that minor edits would collapse into older and newer views.
'Page last modified' turns into something like 'Page version as at'.

AFAIK this could be implemented as a recipe -- no changes to the
core would be needed.
