Does "show changes" diff against the latest version, or the one you
started to edit?

I can see this behavior becoming a real problem, particularly during
commit fest when multiple people might be updating the page.  Can we
do anything to prevent collisions?  As a first cut, I'd be happy if
it refused to let me commit if the page had changed from the version
I started to edit.
