I'm a little confused what you are trying to do with 'bzr ci' versus
'bzr add'. Are you saying that 'commit' could automatically add the
file, or that 'bzr add' could commit the contents?

Other systems have a "commit --auto", which finds unknown files and adds
them. Which I've heard is quite nice.

I think bzr could easily be updated to support this, and I would be
happy to review any patches that introduce it.
