Why this feature, I don't get the point? For product name??

I think it's meant to be able to use history to revert some changes done to a product page.
I don't think it would give much advantage and it would require lots of additional queries (I think, @hangy, @stephanegigandet?)

[CharlesNepote]

I think I can easily make it with Power User Script but I don't catch the point. Isn't it very rare to revert product name?

Since the product revisions aren't in the database, but just the file system, it probably wouldn't hurt the db much, but could put some pressure on the fs. In any case, it should probably be queried as hoc, when a user clicks on the history link. Iterating through all revisions to get potential changes for all fields on every page load would be too costly.

I had the power user script in mind when I designed this.
It's to revert easily to a previous value in case of vandalism

Why waste time for such a rare case? Can we show a clear time gain (any kind of approximate metrics would help)?

It's not a rare case. It's not easy to quantify though.
