Good. BTW, Is there anyway to generate conflicts repeatedly?
I'd like to write bridge xtla and smerge-mode.

Two random ideas. I have no strong opinion/idea.

- The command is rather directory oriented. It is not bad to be called from 
dired.
  (I like dired:-) The bad news is that ?T is bound to dired-do-touch.

- A bit crazy idea: Bind the funciton to ?< in *tla-revision* buffer.
  Analogy of ?> (get).

Finally archive browser should have such features.
However, I think we should concentrate tla-inventory related functions till 
releasing
version 0.1, 0.99 or 1.0.

One of the primary target of xtla is pcl-cvs users. pcl-cvs users may expect 
xtla.el
to have functions found in pcl-cvs.

How do you think add "priority" to the TODO list item?

e.g.

Toward version 1.0:
       - tla-invetory
         ...
         ...
Toward version 2.0:
       - tla-browse based on tree-widget.el
       ...
       - tla command supports in dired.el
