The out-of-the-box database-level "version" support does not provide such a UI.
It's more intended to allow developers to work in a sort of sandbox on a
live server.  Versions have historically has had a lot of quirks and 
bugs. Many of us do not ever use them now.

You might look instead at ZopeVersionControl, which IIRC is only
available from cvs.zope.org and doesn't seem to have much documentation.
