The community has grown averse to using versions because they interact
poorly with content catalogs (by locking the individual BTree buckets in
the catalog's indexes).  If Etienne's need doesn't involve touching the
catalog, or if he can affort to do catalog-munging updates only within a
version, then versions will work as designed.

They are still a nice way to experiment with customizing ZPT, etc.
(which won't typically touch the catalog).
