I just looked more carefully, and it's already implemented and can be 
enabled/disabled by clicking on "Merge jobs".

If you have ideas/patches about the window layout, tooltips, 
organization, feel free to comment. It looks reasonable to me, simpler 
than the File Version Browser.

The cache creation can be a bit slow on untuned system at the first run. 
It has to build a Path hierarchy table that is shared between all jobs 
and all clients. So, the second time, only new directories are added and 
it run much faster.

At this time, this tool is working extremely well on Postgres, and is 
slower on MySQL/SQLite. For example, it permits to browse directories 
that contain millions of small files within few ms.

Feedbacks and improvement patches are welcome for this two engines.

Since the "Merge Job" is implemented, I don't see what is missing from 
the Version Browser.

This is probably just commented in the code, take a look to the git 
history to find when it has been disabled, and recompile it.
