I have wanted to build it, but a standalone tool (outside of Dropbox or another sync tool) would be really hard to integrate into workflows, I think.

Agreed. A long time ago, Perforce released a tool that they called Commons, it used OpenOffice under the covers to diff Office documents and display everything in a fairly easy to understand webUI. It wasn't perfect, but treating "documents as code" would scratch that itch that I've had with Dropbox since I've used it.

Just something I've learned to live without, at least for the foreseeable future.
