Although not part of your question:
the ability to "undo" as a creative tool has even more appeal than the 
ability to "undo" a fail (although this is not as obvious).
Many of the artists exploiting the deep feature set of the EDP to the 
max make use of undo/redo, not only on normal overdubs, but on any kind 
of processing.

Thanks for mentioning that site - hadn't heard of it before, but it 
looks interesting for incorporating version management.
That being said: no, I don't know of a standard (or the other possible 
reply would be "ProTools" ;).
That syncing issue with compressed audio they mention on Kompoz is new 
to me (the fact that we're talking audible length changes here).
