Todo, when I find the time:

- See if composite deltas can be re-implemented with primitive deltas that depend on their contents
   Motivation:
    - No more need for a 'CompositeLevel' class that keeps track of which delta is contained by which composite.
    - Composites that contain a common delta could be made conflicting (this is consistent with our "rules": a conflict can only occur between deltas that have a common dependency)
   Difficulty:
    - Still want to show/hide deltas at certain level.

- Add Version.getGraphState()
   Motivation:
    - Often, we need the graph state (i.e. snapshot) associated with some version, e.g., to make an update to it (creating a new version).
    - Currently, we use all kinds of tricks (sometimes very slow replaying of all deltas since big-bang, sometimes the more efficient rollback/forward from our current graph-state) to get a certain graph state.
    - Code would be easier to read if we can just get the GraphState out of any Version.
   Difficulty:
    - Decide how often to store snapshot. Tradeoff between memory use and speed.
    - In a first (naive) implementation, could just keep all generated snapshots (in lazy manner) in memory, forever.

- Make Version.findPathTo(v:Version) more efficient (use breadth-first search)
   Motivation:
    - This function is used very often. It makes code easy to read.
    - Currently implemented using Depth First Search (with a little heuristic)
