Find changesets by keywords (author, files, the commit message), revision number or hash, or revset expression.
Added the ability to toggle where error messages go. They either go to the user (default, for backwards compatibility), the dispatcher, or both. These are able to be toggled via settings in config.py. Please refer to upgrading.txt for more details. (And Richard, let me know if I've done anything wrong with this checkin. :))
