Ah. Makes sense. It does make the VersionsBrowser less useful (IMO at
least), since it shows only those versions in the changes file.
In other words, if I load a Monticello package, and look at the versions
of some method brand new to the image, I'll only see that most recent
version, not the full history of that method (which would require
downloading every mcz/mcd for that package).
But, if I understand correctly, if I loaded up each version separately
and saved the image in between, I would see all the versions because
each save would store that version in the changes file?
