There are - I think - two 'camps'?
Those who want simply to see the development of the current data over time. 
Something that is currently being managed via the change note history.

And the 'camp' I am hoping we are discussing, where it should be possible to set 
a 'date' and view the one the ground situation on that date?

I suppose there is a third element, working with scanned historic maps, but that 
is something we already have access to behind the main map. But it's tagging the 
start date of objects on the MAIN map based on this historic data that is the 
currently contentious problem?
