It would be really nice if you "hg mv"ed a file, then edited it, to be told that it was moved, and the following changes made, rather than having one diff that showed an entire file disappearing and another diff that showed an entire (slightly different, but it won't tell you what those differences are) file appearing somewhere else. Of course, you want to be told that the file was moved or copied, and where from, but you probably also want to review the changes that were made, rather than having to download the two raw files and run diff on them yourself.
