Netapp implemented this perfectly with the snapshots feature of their WAFL filesystem. In every directory there is a .snapshots subdirectory containing monthly, weekly, and hourly snapshots of the parent directory. If you hose your system recovery is as simple as "cp -pr .snapshots/hourly.1/* .". Unfortunately it's patented so Linux can't do the same...
