One interesting aspect of my later patch for handling fancier revision
strings (date:, rev-id:, etc) is that it should actually automatically
update your merge code. So that you can do:

bzr merge ./@date:2005-05-12

The reason it works, is because branch.lookup_revision() does a lookup
into get_revision_info() based on the passed 'revision' parameter.

Anyway, I also agree that your merge code should be included. Even if my
stuff is not.
