Great, that you put a direct link from the document to the changes view. 
Browsing between different versions like I wished is now possible which 
in my view is an enormus step forward in regard of making daisy 
"collaboration ready". Although the navigation panel is a bit too big 
for my taste. All the meta informations and navigation elements are 
taken up the whole screen without showing any of the changes, which IMHO 
are the things users wanted too see when they look at changes. It should 
be possible to flesh out the really important informations and keep the 
others available by some kind of view/hide mechanism. I will take a 
further look at it, maybe I got some ideas  on this issue too.

André
