I've never felt very happy with that model.  It's fine for single files,
but specifying "bzr shelve path/workingtree/file1 path/workingtree/file2
path/workingtree/file3 path/workingtree/file4" seems like a real pain.

Whereas specifying "bzr shelve -d path/workingtree file1 file2 file3
file4" seems a lot nicer.
