BTRFS is a filesystem, to deeply use and integrate it you would have to choose it directly at installation time. A little too much intrusive e poorly flexible option, I think.btrfs is already available for the adventurous, would be nice to see some frontends with this level of integration and ease of use as time machine in OS X (time machine works on the file manager level but also works with individual files and even mail and iphoto for example, all you have to do is click on the icon in the dock).
SparkleShare ( http://sparkleshare.org/ ) seems to me a better solution: it permits versioning, it permits remote sync (iCloud ;-P ?), works over the traditional GIT so the user's repository can be accessed directly from any other applications even if SparkleShare itself doesn't implements a required API, it already has a Nautilus plugin...
It actually misses two thinks:1) a user-proof wizard to create a new repository, perhaps on the local machine 2) the "ultra-cool-time-warp-with-stars-in-background" interface, but probably someone with enough bad taste can provide it...
