Could be. I think it would make sense to start by outlining the
filesystem interface (rpc:s for listing old versions/deleted files,
opening or recovering an older version (probably, linking it to a new
name should be an optional part of the process?), hard deletion (which
should not just unlink the file but also overwrite the appropriate
bits on the underlying store) etc.

When you have that, it will be easier to figure out where the code to
implement itt belongs. "undelete" is a little fuzzy.
