My initial attempt to create format of one entry like this:

file	bzrignore-20050311232317-81f7b71efa2db11a	.bzrignore	TREE_ROOT
 	revision	xxxx
 	text_sha1	xxxx
 	text_size	xxxx
 	executable	yes

If I understand you correctly you'd like to have this:

file	bzrignore-20050311232317-81f7b71efa2db11a	
	name		.bzrignore
	parent_id	TREE_ROOT
 	revision	xxxx
 	text_sha1	xxxx
 	text_size	xxxx
 	executable	yes

Am I understand correctly this: "each of the values to be annotated individually"?

This change complicate things a bit and probably slowdown read operation
because of additional checks but I try to test this implementation as well
to see real numbers.
