Bazaar Explorer -- very small points

When opening a branch with uncommitted changes or unknown files, I get a
nice little icon and the message "Working tree has uncommitted changes
or unknown files" followed by a list of unversioned files. Two points:
1. I think uncommitted changes and unknown files are two totally
different things so perhaps separating the warning into two distinct
warnings would be appropriate?
2. Perhaps there needs to be some consistency in use of the terms
"unknown files" and "unversioned files" -- this would avoid the user
wondering if they were different things.
So far Bazaar Explorer looks very cool. A very nice GTK interface ;-)
Speculative and untested thought: Bazaar Explorer is choosing to eschew
all non-Bazaar interactions -- e.g. creating new files, etc. This is
fine per se. However if I create a new file in the directory currently
being explored, there is no event that updates the explorer. I think
that to not have simple file operations in the explorer then it must
track immediately all changes in the directory.
