Admittedly I didn't spend a lot of time trying to find a convincing use case, but the example that sprang immediately to mind is if the palette is actually some kind of table of contents for the document. You'd probably want that in the version browser interface too.

Oh, no. They're not static images. They're documents, in the sense that you can copy pieces of them into the current document normally, and presumably you can edit them (unless your code disables this specifically, which it probably should) though of course you can't save any changes. This is another thing that the WWDC addresses -- in some apps, apparently non-destructive state changes (such as changing which page of the document is visible) are normally undoable and hence make the document dirty. This is another case that needs to be handled carefully in version browsing.
