Currently, only the person who last modified a segment is stored and displayed.
With this RFE, OmegaT would add the information it gets from the server and display it in a list above the segment (only if "display history" is selected, otherwise it would be too cumbersome?)
For ex:

etc.
That way it would be possible to see how a segment has evolved over the course of the translation and if modifications have been overwritten.
Addendum: the whole segment history could be stored in the TMX to be displayed in a separate pane.
I don't see the relationship between storing data in the TMX and displaying it in a separate pane.
Storing the data could be consume a significant amount of memory. Plus you get the risk of being out of sync with the server, so you would have to refresh often. Getting data directly from the server might be a better approach. It might be too slow to display it continuously, though.

Indeed, there is no relation.
The idea is to have:
1) a list of people who modified the segment
2) the modification history in a separate pane
