Ideally, I'd say it should say both (maybe collapsed down to 1 if
they're the same). I'm a bit leery of changing it, though; if ever a
bzr command were written as if to be used as "plumbing", 'revno' is
it; most people frown on programs that blow up their scripts. I don't
know how big a concern that is in the community at this point (or how
assiduous we want to be about preserving such things pre-1.0).
> 3) 'bzr log' should show the revisions of only the working tree,
This I'm a little more iffy on; I think of 'log' as referring to the
branch. But that also veers even FURTHER off course, and belongs in
another email that's currently brewing in my mind. Maybe I'll acquire
a round tuit for that together later today...

And don't forget also that we have a third form of working tree; that
directly associated with a branch. I may (and do) want to fling that
around old versions and back to head too. And it's the one that gets
out-of-date from a 'push', too.
