I wouldn't want multiple collaborators editing my code all at once - I wouldn't know what they are doing. If I invite someone to collaborate I need to know what they changed before I redeploy the code.

EtherPad had colored background for each collaborator, as well as a timeline slider and saved revisions so you could see who did what at each point.

You clearly never used EtherPad or SubEthaEdit.
