Restriction aside (at least in my environment users tend to have a dozen or less apps, with the "common to everyone" apps in the base image) you can indeed already do this with the exist appvolumes. I in fact already do this with the existing appvolumes and we haven't upgraded to 4.0 yet. My understanding was it was more of a logical change in that you now get apps in the interface with versions listed under each app, rather than the existing version were you just get a big long list of appstacks split up however you happen to be naming them. I know I'll be using the versioning quite heavily when we eventually upgrade as I've already pretty much started to use my own versioning system in the current version (i include a date a build number in the appstack name).

I was hoping the 'under the hood' changes they were making would have speed up app stack attachments to the point where having 20-30 appstacks per user wouldn't be an issue. Right now its bearable to log in (at least on my setup) with 5-10 appstacks but realistically anything past that makes logging in take so long you start to get complains.

In my head I've been treating 4.0 more like 2.19 (with 2.18 being LTS anyway) with the caveat that once you've upgraded there is no going back.
