Hosted workstation
Start from a real mission.
Pick a mission to open it in the workstation; each opens as your own copy.
Opening a mission asks for the workstation's user name and password, which the owner hands out. Change anything: your copy is the only one that changes. The examples stay as they ship, and copies are deleted automatically after a while.
