Being able to record a series of incremental changes in a filesystem
hierarchy, and then roll them back as required.  That would be
exceedingly useful, and I think your 'ntree' format has virtually
everything necessary to do that.  The most obvious missing bit I can
see is creating a backup of a file before overwriting it with
different content.

Is this something that requires changes to the specification
file format, or just a feature of the tool that uses the
specification file?

If the former, what do you envision would be required?
