I dont remember why but this request was denied previously #7019 (comment)

@brianteeman could the reason be somewhere on Gilp? (I'm not currently on Glip)

If we can't find a Justification for why this request was previously denied, I suggest we move it to a RFC.

Unfortunately not it was a decision made at the cleanup sprint

@photodude I don't recall the reason either (and I was there) but I doubt it was a final "no way, ever" kind of thing, so if you would like to think through the technical and architectural issues and produce an RFC it will certainly be considered.

For one you'd basically have to version all modules or hack the UCM data
structure in a way that it can work with non-component type data. That's a
pretty big wall to get over when dealing with it.

Thanks @chrisdavenport, I'll consider writing up some technical and architectural solutions.

@mbabker I agree that UCM structure is a big wall to deal with. IMO Modules should be versionable by type, and only if the module is set up to support versioning.

For the time being my efforts are going to be focused on the PHPCS 2.x Coding Standards and possibly the HHVM testing for some time. I'll definitely come back to this at some point but it's lower on my consideration list.

I remember now that the reasoning was to do with the issues with UCM and with the roadmap for page builder which would possibly make this need redundant

page builder is on the Joomla 4 roadmap right?

I still think this maybe worth pursuing, pending the implementation of page builder.

If you want to go ahead and write some code then fine I'm certainly not going to stop you. I am going to close this now and if/when you create some code that will be a new PR
