Doesn't help recover the last 2 hours of work you did because some
editor (person) decided to open your project file, changed a saved
selection, and saved it back to disk.
Of course I am thinking of 100+ megabyte photoshop files being served
off a server via gigabit.
It'd be best to issue a warning *before* you start editing, not after.

Nevertheless, you can easily in your app implement a variant of
optimistic locking: when saving, check whether the contents on disk
had changed from the time you loaded the file in or not (using eg. a
MD5 sig, which is easily obtainable via CLI utilities -- man md5).
If it has, issue a warning.
