The only problem with that is if you have a large number of files in one 
state, the header scrolls of the screen and disappears.

I'd like "bzr status --modified" (and so on), so rather than having to "scan" 
for "M" or "modified" or whatever, I just run "bzr st --modified" and if I 
get any output at all I know there's something changed.
