That would be excellent.  BTW, in experimenting with THG, I stumbled across
"hgtk browse" which is somewhat similar to what I was looking for.  However,
it appears to be a bit buggy with regards to the context menu items (IE, the
"File History" option doesn't appear for files below the top level
directory).
