+1.  The old way of showing the merges on --long, and not on
short/line, made perfect sense to me.  Gaining the ability to {,not}
show the merges on any is a big plus, but I counted losing them on
long as a minus (and the inability to re-enable it there without
source hackery is bothersome too).

Funnily enough, just a few minutes ago, I get this write(1) from a
cow-orker...

Message from $USER@$HOST on ttypf at 06:05 ...
Any idea offhand why a bzr merge would lose the original commit
message?

bzr branch trunk source
cd source
[changes]; bzr ci -m 'Initial message'
bzr branch trunk target
cd target
bzr merge source
bzr st will show the "Initial message"
bzr ci -m 'New message'
Now all bzr log shows is the "New message"

Isn't that, like, broken?
