Q: Version Control or Content History in databases ?

Hi group,

is there any such thing like version control or content history in a database system ? I think of such a thing like CVS for database content.

It should be possible to make queries like:

  SELECT x,y FROM table WHERE SYSDATE = date

Is this a topic of interest to database theoreticists ?

(The real problems start when you want this to be still _fast_ and foreign key handling fully operable in the desired sense.)

Do you see any practical way to acomplish such a thing ?

Every input is welcome,
