Question about bzr -rdate:

Why does bzr -rdate: look for the first revision *after* the given date, as
opposed to the first revision *before*?

Personally, my choice to use -rdate was to try and find what the code looked
like on a certain date in time, and -rdate was not giving me that at all.

What is the use case for going for the one after?
If there is a good one, it may be worth adding another date specifier that
allows one to do what I intuitively thought date would do.

Also, is it worth mentioning in the documentation that it only finds
top-level revisions? ie. it won't find the first dotted rev after that point
in time?

Regards,
Andrew
