This seems like a good compromise. So long as the error given by a 
lonely 'revert' indicates that --all will revert everything.

I don't know if you discussed this on the IRC but would retaining the 
current behaviour but adding a confirm question by possible. So we had:

 %monotone revert
  Warning, this will revert all files. Do you wish to continue?

or something similar. There could be a --force option to do it without 
the question.


Anyway thats my twopenneth,
