I like it so far.

A feature I feel I want is to provide a selector for <C-x V =>.

That is, I want to see changes between my workspace and some revision
other than the workspace's base revision.

For example, if my workspace is of some subbranch, I might want to see
what changes it makes respective to the parent branch (for reviewing
it prior to propagation, say).

Or (what I've been doing recently) I want to review the changes
relative to the parent branch in order to remove a few spurious
changes introduced by my slightly clumsy use of meld.
