Show list of 3 most recent changes to scribbles on page

[juliaelman]

Something we have discussed, it creating the ability for users to be able to tell who has made the most recent changes on the page. While we could get quite complicated in implementing this, I'd like it to start out with the following:

• List of most recent changes
• Username associated with that change
• Possibly a timestamp for when the change was made

Both the username and timestamp to live directly next to the change it is associated this.

Also, a good place to put this would be in the newly created pull out menu at the top of the page. Here is an example of how it might read:

Last 3 changes to page:
'header' scribble by juliaelman on 12/31/2012 at 12:31PM
'header' scribble by csmith on 12/05/2012 at 09:02AM
'days_log' scribble by kmtracey on 11/22/2012 at 3:13PM

We could not currently include field scribbles in this list, since we don't keep information about who changed what when for those (we have no place to put such information at the moment). It seems to me it would be confusing to users to have some scribbles show up in that list and others not, so I'd think we'd need to start tracking information on changes to field scribbles before we do this...though I'd be interested in hearing what others think.

@juliaelman and I had poked at this idea before and I think it would be interesting to investigate some kind of (optional) integration with django-reversion for tracking this kind of information but no work has been done there yet.

While we're at it, it would be nice if we could revert to an earlier revision, in case of mistakes, or just someone changing their mind.
