Is there a command to check if a revision is later than another (ie is a parent or ancestor of another).

You might try something with "bzr missing". It lets you pass a
- --revision argument. So something like:

 bzr missing --theirs -r BAD_REVISION OTHER_REVISION

Should let you know if BAD_REVISION has anything that hasn't been
merged into the current branch.

It is certainly possible with plugins. There is bzrlib.graph that has
a Graph object that can answer a lot of things like that.
