Note that "commonprefix" works on sequences, which can lead to undesired
behavior when using strings:
{{{
>>> files = ['trunk/trac/env.py', 'trunk/templates/index.cs']
>>> os.path.commonprefix(files)
'trunk/t'
}}}
So, it's usually best to split the strings on path separators, then join
them back:
{{{
>>> '/'.join(os.path.commonprefix([f.split('/') for f in files]))
'trunk'
}}}

> This should be implemented as an optional feature (i.e. with a config
option in trac.ini)
Why? I prefer not to make every UI change an option. Every option just
makes trac.ini and its documentation larger and more confusing. I don't
really see a particular reason ''not'' to display the base path of the
changes.
