Nothing actually, I had been thinking version info but that isn't
needed in a snapshot based vcs.

OK, I'll stop adding features for now and try to get something out by

I just had a look bzr-mode.el, wow, when I said 'simple' I didn't have
anything as compact as that in mind. I especially like the trick of

the lines of the PCL-CVS mode and I don't see much opportunity for
directly sharing code.
