This isn't completely true, they work well with 0.26pre using mark and
merge, but not quite with <0.25 3-way algo.
Two other things:
* I'd really like a 'monotone patch-commit' command which I can feed a
patch and it will add/drop/rename + commit the stuff inside.
* lua hooks inside the repository, someone called it 'management
branches', but I'd just like to ships some hooks inside OE.
