It's not only common it's still the way PDFs are usually saved. Open a PDF in a text editor (PDFs are text not binary files) and you can see any edits appended as "trailers".

This sounds like a feature that could be exploited in creative ways in either a product or some fun side project. I don't know what it is exactly but there's something aout never editing edit logs (possible not being obvious to the user as a factor) plus some graphical UI representation or UX flow (besides undo).
