autoversioning?

Is file autoversioning possible with btrfs?

I have a VMS background, where the standard filesystem automatically
creates a new version for every file that is written.

The number of versions can be controlled globally, on directory or on file
base.

With btrfs I can create manually a file version (clone) with
"cp -a --reflink"
but I want this to be done automatically.

I could set up an incron-job (inotify), but perhaps there is a better,
easier solution?
