Yes, if you're working in a version, what you see *is* the version.  For
example, if modify a document in a version, and you click 'View' you see
the version copy, not the 'public' copy.

Nope.  Versions work with cookies, which FTP obviously has no semantics
for.  Versions are cool and magical, but not quite as magical as they
first seem.
